I know you are growing canola for oil feedstock and I remember discucssing Camelina with you in the past I just don't remember what your feelings about it were.

I just came across this article and thought it might interest you

I just finished planting my Camelina test plots It is a lot cheaper to plant, uses less water, and I already sold the crop for $.18 a pound ( the same price that canola sells for......) After I harvest the plots I'll try and make bio out of it and let you know the results.
