  • Is Ethiopian mustard edible oil a new promising Brassicaceae crop?
  • Ethiopian mustard is becoming a new promising Brassicaceae crop with the current global energy demand increases. However, researchers have only focused on energy source production which has resulted in developing high erucic acid varieties. This results partly in limited studies on developing Ethiopian mustard edible oil varieties.
  • Is Ethiopian mustard suitable for crop rotation?
  • Ethiopian mustard is suitable for crop rotation and intercropping with food crops, such as wheat [ 26 ], chickpea [ 27 ], barley and sorghum [ 28 ]. Mulvaney et al. [ 8] reported that neither row spacing nor seeding rate affected the Ethiopian mustard oil concentration, seed and yield traits.
  • Can Ethiopian mustard be grown under limited environmental conditions?
  • It can be emphasized that Ethiopian mustard can be grown under limited environmental conditions with minimum cultural practices and a lower cost of production. Furthermore, it has been shown that seeding rate does not affect the yield and nutritional properties of Ethiopian mustard [ 8 ]. 3.1.
  • Where does Ethiopian mustard come from?
  • Ethiopian mustard ( Brassica carinata A. Braun) is mainly originated in the highlands of Ethiopia [ 1 ]. It is locally known as ¡°Gomenzer¡± (¡°Yehabesha Gomen¡±) and ¡°Hamli Adri¡± in Amharic and Tigrigna languages, respectively. It can well be adopted in the Mediterranean climate areas [ 2] and it is a drought and heat tolerant oilseed crop [ 3, 4 ].
