What is Mustard?

Mustard is an oilseed crop and spice that is used to make oil and as a tampering ingredient. It comes in a variety of yellow, brown and black colour and produces from the seeds of the Brassica family.

The seeds are tiny, round, and rich with taste. It is directly used in cooking as a spice, and oil is made out of it. Mustard leaves or ‘Sarso ka saag’ are also consumed as a nutritious leafy vegetable.

Mustard seeds are also used to create mustard sauce and powder. Mustard oil is used in massage, cooking, and traditional medicine due to its significant therapeutic properties.

How is Mustard cultivated?

Mustard grows best in cool climates with healthy and well-drained soil. Cultivation starts after ploughing and levelling the ground. Then the seeds are dispersed all around the ground. The ground should be generally weed-free to promote healthy growth.

Seeds are sown straight into the ground during the winter. Keeping plants at the correct distance from one another encourages healthy production. The crop requires very little watering and benefits from organic fertilizers.

In three to four months, mustard plants reach maturity. The plants then cut and kept to dry naturally. The seed pods automatically open up. After that, the seeds are cleaned and processed for use as oil or spices.
