As oil crops for the first time the sunflower began to be used in Russia. In 1900 the Russian breeders were bred new varieties. Their seeds contain up to 60 % oil. In the previously grown varieties, this percentage was only 28 %.

In Addition to the sunflower now available and other types of meal. For example, soy. It is also a very valuable feed product. But, unfortunately, in our time, grown a huge amount of GMO soybeans. And in the production of meal she used to be very active. With the same sunflower plant breeders-geneticists work is practically not carried out. Farmers and large agricultural companies around the world grow mostly only ordinary varieties and hybrids. Advantage of the sunflower before soy is undemanding to soil composition and climatic conditions.
