Crambe moisture, protein and oil percentages were predicted by fixed‐filter near‐infrared reflectance with standard errors of prediction (SEP) of 0.26, 0.59 and 0.86 percentage points, respectively. Crambe had a large range of protein and oil percentages, 17.4%–25.0% and 17.7%–36.4% respectively. Calibration samples were selected on the basis of relative spectral data, with no advance knowledge of protein and oil content. This procedure selected samples representing the full range of constituent values, and resulted in calibrations that had lower SEP's than standard errors of calibration.
