  2. Integrated Feedstock Development and Management of Oilseed Crops for “Drop-in Biofuels in Florida” FDACS Funding • Applied Research Associates • Agrisoma Biosciences/Mustard 21 • University of Florida

  3. Objectives • Have an oilseed crop that will produce 200 gal/A of oil and be economically viable without subsidies as a winter crop (3500-4000lbs/A seed) • Find short season varieties that can be planted in November and harvested in late April- double cropped or on dormant pastures • Variety must have good oil characteristics and be above 40% oil content • High protein meal with good animal performance • Growers have the ability to make a profit of $300-450/A ( ideal) • Be easy to grow, few pests, relatively low fertilizer requirements,etc. (See poster- R. Seepaul)

  4. What we will do! Simple Terms • Grow crop- grown around the world • Crush seed • Feed cows • Fly jet
