For several recent years, Russia faced a new tendency of the significant reduction of the planted areas under camelina, declared the Director of Casus Bio Oil Trading UG, Raisa Steinik during the interview to APK-Inform journalists.

As a reminder, in previous years the planted areas continued dynamically growing — from 5-8 thsd ha in 2008, to 268.1 thsd ha in 2014.

However, in 2015 the areas under Russian camelina decreased to 206.1 thsd ha, and in 2017 the figures totaled 93 thsd ha only. Thus, for 3 recent years the reduction totaled nearly 65%, said R.Steinik.
