Abstract. The needs of mankind for cooking oils are increasing. Cameline (Rom. lubiţa) (Camelina sativa Crantz) of the Cruciferous family has been cultivated for its seeds (30-35% oil) for more than 2,000 years. Researches on fertilisation have been carried on in the Timisoara area on a cambic, phreatic moist (low gleyed) decarbonated chernozem formed on loess-like deposits. Nitrogen and Phosphorus fertilisation has had a good influence on spring-seeded cameline crop. Spring-seeded cameline represents a future oil crop for the area under study.

Keywords: spring-seeded, Camelina sativa L
