Oil flax is an important source of raw materials for the production of technical oil. Its seeds contain 42-50% fat, which dries quickly, forming a thin, smooth, shiny film. The botanical name for flax, Linum usitatissimum, means "most useful." The oil is used in many industries: in paint and varnish for the production of natural drying oil, varnishes, enamels, various paints for underwater work; electrical, aviation, automobile, shipbuilding, etc., as well as soap making, medicine. Linseed oil is indispensable in the production of lithographic paints, linoleum, oilcloth, non-soaking fabrics.
Oil flax is an important medicinal plant. Flaxseed oil is used in the diet of patients with fat metabolism disorders, atherosclerosis, ischemic heart disease, brain disease, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, liver cirrhosis, hepatitis, etc. Flaxseed oil contains a minimum amount of cholesterol and a large amount of unsaturated fatty acids, the use of which with food lowers cholesterol levels.
Rapeseed is a long-day annual plant, cold-resistant, demanding on moisture and soil fertility, grows well in the temperate zone. With a shortening of daylight hours, the vegetative mass increases, and seed productivity decreases. In rapeseed, winter and spring forms are distinguished.
The benefits of this culture are undeniable. It is widely used in many areas of industry and agriculture. All parts of the plant are used, it is practically waste-free production. The main product obtained after pressing the seeds is rapeseed oil. The cake after pressing goes to livestock feed. Green matter is also an excellent food, especially in early spring.
But the main product is rapeseed oil. It is widely used in a wide variety of areas:
Oats - a grain crop, belongs to spring breads of the 1st group.
Oat grain contains on average 10-13% protein, 40-45% starch, 4.5-6.0% fat. Thanks to this indicator, oats are of nutritional and feed value. Oat grain is an irreplaceable concentrated feed for horses and young animals of other species, poultry. Oats as feed helps to increase egg production and milk production. The nutritional value of 1 kg of medium-quality oat grain is taken as 1 feed unit.
It is used to produce cereals, rolled oats, oatmeal, biscuits, coffee. Due to the good digestibility of proteins, fat, starch and vitamins, oat products are important in dietary and baby food. Grain is rich in vitamins (B1, B2) and trace elements (cobalt, zinc, manganese).
Oatmeal due to its high content of calcium and phosphorus surpasses millet and buckwheat in nutritional value. Oat flour is not used for baking due to the poor quality of gluten, but it is used for making cookies.
Millet is a typical grain crop. Millet groats (millet) are obtained through special processing of millet grains.
Millet is cultivated mainly for the production of millet. Excellent taste, quick digestibility and high nutritional value of millet allow millet to keep its position as one of the most important cereal crops. The main human use of millet is for preparing cereals and soups, baking homemade pastries. The groats contain 81% starch, 12% proteins, 3.5% fat, 1% fiber, minerals, vitamin B1.
In particular, millet contains more potassium salts than other cereals, which is of great importance for the activity of the heart. As a dietary meal, crumbly millet porridge is recommended for certain cardiovascular diseases, atherosclerosis.
Millet is of great importance not only for humans, but also for domestic animals - it is a valuable feed in poultry farming, especially for young animals. Millet straw and chaff in terms of their fodder qualities almost catch up with the unrivaled (for many animals) meadow hay.
Lentils are a plant from the legume family. In culture, only one of its varieties is grown - food. It is an annual herb that forms small shrubs from 30 to 75 cm in height. Complex oval-shaped, paired-pinnate leaves are arranged on short petioles.
Lentils are distinguished by color and seed size. Now they grow green, red and specific varieties. Specific types include black, brown, and French green lentils. According to the grain size, there are 2 types of crops: large-seeded and small-seeded.
Food lentils contain 25-31% complete protein, which includes 21 amino acids, including 12 essential ones (threonine, arginine, tryptophan and others). Lentil protein is similar in composition to animal protein and is easily digestible, which is especially important for vegetarians.
Lentil grains are rich in vitamins and minerals, antioxidants and other biologically active substances. Due to their chemical composition, lentils have many beneficial properties.
Buckwheat is a grain agricultural cereal crop.
Buckwheat groats are obtained from buckwheat grains, which are distinguished by high taste and nutritional qualities. The quality of the protein composition of buckwheat corresponds to the protein composition of leguminous crops, including the essential acids lysine - 7.9% and arginine - 12.7%.
Chemical composition of unbroken fruits: moisture - 12.8%, proteins - 10-16%, fats - 1.8-2.7%, nitrogen-free extractives - 60-62%, fiber - 13.3%, ash substances - 2 ,1%.
The benefit of buckwheat is that it is a valuable dietary product, it contains amino acids, proteins, carbohydrates. Proteins of buckwheat grains are close in nutritional value to proteins of legumes and are considered even more valuable than proteins of wheat. Fats are resistant to oxidation, so buckwheat can be stored for a long time. Buckwheat contains a lot of iron, calcium, phosphorus, organic acids and various trace elements necessary for the human body. Buckwheat contains many B vitamins, as well as vitamins A, E, C, P, PP, K.
The medicinal properties and use of buckwheat in medicine: it is useful to use it for diseases of the liver, cardiovascular and nervous systems, kidneys and diabetes mellitus. It is necessary for people who are obese and have had a serious illness. With its help, complex disorders of the vital processes of the bile and lymphatic system are cured. Buckwheat helps with varicose veins and other vascular diseases, it improves blood circulation, strengthens the immune system, prevents rheumatic diseases and arthritis.
Buckwheat is a real treasure trove of routine. No other grain contains as much of this compound. Rutin seals the walls of blood vessels, stops bleeding, has a preventive and therapeutic effect on veins in case of varicose veins, hemorrhoids, etc. In connective tissues, rutin, acting together with vitamin C, strengthens the smallest blood vessels.
Grain sorghum is widely used as a raw material for food production: cereals, starch and flour, from which cereals, tortillas are prepared and bread is baked, pre-mixing it with wheat flour for better viscosity. Sorghum contains unsaturated and saturated acids, mono- and disaccharides, as well as a variety of vitamins: PP, B1, B5, B2, B6, A, H, choline. This cereal exceeds the blueberry record in the content of polyphenolic compounds by 12 times. And its mineral composition is represented by phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, calcium, sodium, iron, copper, silicon, aluminum, etc.
100 g of cereal contains 68% carbohydrates, up to 15% crude protein, 3.3% fat percent. It is also worth mentioning the calorie content of sorghum: 339 kcal per 100 g of product.
Recently, grain sorghum has been in demand among dieters. It is recommended to replace all wheat cereals with this cereal. Unlike wheat and other grains, sorghum is low in gluten and high in fiber, so it is recommended for diabetics and people with gluten intolerance.
Sorghum is effectively used in animal husbandry (as a fodder base for livestock and poultry), and vitamin complexes and food additives are also produced from it.
Mustard is a spicy-aromatic annual plant known to man since ancient times. There are many varieties of it (about 40), but the most famous are: white mustard, black mustard, Sarepta.
Mustard is an annual plant reaching a height of 50-80 cm. It has lyre-shaped leaves. During flowering, forms yellow inflorescences. The seeds ripen in pods that resemble curved hooks. Of all types of mustard, the white has the largest seeds. light yellow or straw yellow. Their smell is not expressed in any way, the taste is rough, sharp.
White mustard, like other types, is grown industrially. Fairly frost-resistant culture.
The use of mustard in the national economy is varied: it is grown to obtain edible oil, mustard powder, green animal feed and many other needs.
It is especially valuable for making bread of the highest grades (mustard bread) and confectionery. In industrial conditions, mustard oil can last several times longer than sunflower oil. In addition, mustard oil is a renewable energy source: it can be converted into fuel by methanolysis.
Mustard cake is one of the best concentrated feed for animals. One kilogram contains 0.98 feed units, 274 g of protein.
Safflower is a very versatile culture.
The seeds of the crop are known as the best bird food. The oil obtained from safflower seeds contains polyunsaturated fatty acids: linoleic (88%), oleic (7.6%), palminthic (5.5%), stearic (0.65%), linolenic (0.2%). It is used in the food industry (making some varieties of margarine), in cosmetology (regenerating creams, anti-aging masks) and perfumery (soap making). In the paint and varnish industry, safflower oil is used for the manufacture of drying oil, white enamels and paints, a distinctive feature of which is the absence of yellowing over time. It is also used in the manufacture of linoleum.
Due to their high nutritional properties, thornless safflower varieties are used as green forage, hay or silage in livestock farming. In terms of protein, sugar, oil and fiber content, safflower feeds are not inferior to alfalfa. The cake obtained after pressing the safflower oil from seeds is also an excellent feed for livestock and poultry: it is rich in protein (up to 19%), oil (about 6 - 8%) and starch (over 24%).
