Copra, cottonseed, palm kernel, peanut, soybean, sunflower seed, and rapeseed are major oil seeds used for extraction of vegetable oil. Rapeseed has higher oil content than any other oil seeds, and is thus cultivated for the extraction of vegetable oil for household, industrial purposes, and feedstock for bio-fuel production. Rapeseed contains 40% oil and is usually extracted by pre-pressing or by solvent extraction. The presence of vitamin E and antioxidants in rapeseed oil or canola oil reduces scar tissues and repairs damaged hair and skin conditions such as itching, eczema, and acne, thus finding application in manufacturing of wide varieties of cosmetic and personal care products. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids available in the rapeseed oil help in proper development, functioning, and maintenance of brain and other nervous tissues; for improvement of immune & inflammatory responses; help in lowering the risk of heart disease; and to maintain normal blood pressure.

Europe accounts for more than 60% of the produced rapeseed oil to manufacture bio-diesel. Thus, increase in consumption of rapeseed oil as a feedstock for bio-fuel is expected to drive the rapeseed oil market growth. The nutritional and health benefits associated with rapeseed oil have led to its evolution in the U.S., China, and India. However, high prices of rapeseed oil in these countries makes it uncompetitive for biodiesel production. Moreover, uncertainty in climatic conditions resulting in fluctuation of rapeseed prices, lower domestic production, and increase in compaction from other oil seeds, including soybean & palm kernel for producing vegetable oil may restraint the rapeseed oil industry growth.
