“…Primarily, carinata was developed for oil production as biofuel; however, the excellent agronomic traits (high yield in hot, dry, and semiarid climates), associated with a high oil protein content (20–30% of seed weight), has increased the use of this seed as feedstuff. ,− Furthermore, the cultivated area of carinata has been expanded worldwide, and the breeding program has developed lines with low glucosinolate levels, increasing the commercial interest for this oilseed. − , Currently, the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) has bred zero erucic acid and low-glucosinates lines, and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) approved the use of carinata meal in beef cattle ration . However, published research related to the nutritional and metabolic effects of carinata seeds in dairy cows and the relationships between the inherent molecular structure and nutrient bioavailability is still limited. ,, …”
