Response of oil producing camelina (<i>Camelina sativa</i> L.) crop to different agroecology and rate of NP fertilization

Camelina ( sativa L.) is an industrial crop, which has been cultivated for centuries as oilseed crop human food, however, the production and its importance were not well known in Ethiopia. The current research was conducted to identify potential agroecology rate of NP (nitrogen phosphorous) fertilizer high yield camelina crop. Two major agroecological zones, namely highland (moist dega) midland weyna-dega) agroecologies, tested. experiments both RCBD design with similar treatments. treatments (T1 = 0 kg N ha −1 , P ), (T2 30 10 (T3 60 20 (T4 90 (T5 120 40 ) (T6 150 50 ).
