Abstract
Summary: Lupin can be grown as an arable leguminous oilseed crop in temperate climates. Though the oil yield, as a proportion of dry seed, is somewhat low in comparison with soyabeans, the oil is readily extractable and can be refined by conventional processes to yield a pale bland edible oil in good yield.Owing to the presence of linolenic acid, lupinseed oil, like soyabean oil, has limited stability in ambient storage conditions but its quality compares favourably with that of soyabean oil or rapeseed oil.
