Key Points

This research examines the feasibility of double-cropping camelina with food crops and the effects of pelargonic acid.
Evaluated the effects of pelargonic acid application on camelina crops.
Compared camelina double cropping success with sunflower and sorghum.
Measured harvest time, seed yield, and oil content.
Pelargonic acid application accelerated camelina harvest by 15 days.
Camelina combined with sorghum was unsuitable for double cropping.
Pelargonic acid application increased seed yield but reduced total oil content.

Implication

Demonstrates increased seed yield in camelina with pelargonic acid, indicating feasibility in southern Europe.

Abstract

• Camelina double cropping with sunflower is a feasible option for southern Europe. • Pelargonic acid application accelerated camelina harvest by 15 d. • Double cropping with camelina and sorghum was not a suitable option. • Pelargonic acid application increased camelina seed yield but decreased total oil content.
