Slide3

SEASON AND CLIMATE

Linseed is a winter season cropRequires moderate temperature(21-270C) during vegetative and reproductive phase High temperature (>320C) with moisture stress during flowering stage reduces seed yieldCultivated in 4 agro-climatic zones of India

Slide4

CROP DESCRIPTION

Linseed is an annual, glabrous plant having one to many stemsSeeds are ovate and brown or yellow in colourTwo distinct morphological seed types and Dual Purpose types are recognizedLinseed fiber is valued for its fine quality

Slide5

GLOBAL SCENARIO

Linseed is cultivated in more than 50 countriesGrown on an area of 24.09 lakh ha (Av:2012-15) Average production is 23.09 lakh tonne (Av:2012-15) Average productivity is 930 kg/ha (Av:2012-15)

NATIONAL SCENARIO

Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Bihar, Maharashtra, Odisha, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal and Assam are major linseed growing States in the countryArea under linseed cultivation has remained almost static between 2.85 to 2.98 lakh ha (2013-14 to 2015-16) Productivity of linseed has declined from 541 kg/ha (2014-15) to 442 kg/ha (2015-16)

YIELD GAP UNDER FLDs

FLDs conducted by ICAR institutes including SAUs (rabi 2013-14) indicates a yield gap of-43-231% over State Average Yield (Irrigated condition)3-243% over State Average Yield( rainfed condition)48-106% over State Average Yield (Utera condition) Factors contributing to low yieldLimited choice of high yielding varieties Low seed replacement rate Low input application

PACKAGE AND PRACTICES

Linseed crop is cultivated under three eco-systems-Utera systemRainfed ecosystemIrrigated ecosystemDual Purpose Linseed: Grown in Kangra district of HP, Indo-Gangetic plains and irrigated areas of Bundelkhand of UP, Tawa command area of MP and Kota command area of Rajasthan

Slide21

PACKAGE AND PRACTICES (contd

) Sowing Time:Time of sowing varies from State to StateOptimum sowing period is from first fortnight of October to first fortnight of NovemberSeed Rate:25-30 kg /ha under rainfed/irrigated sowing45-50 kg/ha for Dual Purpose (DP) sowing50-60 kg/ha under Utera broadcasting methodSpacing:20-25 cm is optimum spacing under rainfed / irrigated conditions

Slide22

PACKAGE AND PRACTICES (

contd)Fertilizer Application:Fertilizer dose of 40 kg/ha N and 20 kg P is recommended under rainfed conditions60-80 kg/ha N and 30 kg P is recommended under irrigated conditions80 kg/ha N and 30 kg P is recommended under Dual Purpose sowing 20 kg/ha N is recommended under Utera system

Slide23

PACKAGE AND PRACTICES (

contd)Plant Protection:Two fortnightly sprays of Spinosad 45EC (0.015%) reduces bud fly infestation which enhances seed yield up to 63%Two applications of neem based commercial formulation containing Azadirachtin 300 ppm also reduces bud fly infestation

MSP AND EXPORT

Linseed is not covered under Minimum Support Price

(MSP) and no procurement is carried out.

Y

ear wise quantity and value of linseed exported

during last 3 years is

as under:

Slide25

NUTRITIVE VALUE

Richest source of lenolenic (18:3) poly-unsaturated fatty acid (35-60%), which has quick drying propertyBest source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acidsSeeds have high medicinal value in control of cardiovascular, cancerous, diabetic and rheumatic arthritis diseasesRoasted seeds of linseeds are used in various food preparations in different parts of the countryLinseed oil is largely used in paint and varnish industry

Slide26

RESEARCHABLE ISSUES

Development of short duration and heat tolerant high yielding varieties of linseed particularly for rice fallowsDevelopment of location specific integrated crop management practicesDevelopment of eco-friendly IPM technologies Development of varieties/technologies for utera cultivationEvolving dual purpose varieties

Slide27

ISSUES / ACTIONABLE POINTS

Promoting High Yielding Varieties suitable for low productivity StatesSuitable production technology for utera cultivation and dual purpose type varieties needs to be developed by ICAR / SAUsLess than 10 year old varieties may be popularized by States Development of IPM modules by ICAR / SAUs Covering linseed under MSP and assured procurementPromoting export to developing countries for its health benefits
