BIOLOGICAL CULTURE OF NEW HYBRID HIGH OLEIC HIGH STEARIC (HOHS) FOR OBTAINING OILS WITH HIGH STABILITY USED IN AGROALIMENTAL THERMAL PROCESSING
CULTURA BIOLOGICA A NOILOR HIBRIZI HIGH OLEICI HIGH STEARICI (HOHS) PENTRU OBTINEREA UNOR ULEIURI CU STABILITATE RIDICATA UTILIZABILE IN PROCESAREA TERMICA AGROALIMENTARA
Objectives
The main objective is to implement a new development-innovation project, by applying two different crop technologies with HOHS sunflower hybrids, in order to obtain high stability oils usable in agri-food thermal processing. The aim is to encourage the cultivation of these hybrids, which, through the fatty acid profile ensure a better shelf life of the products, but the benefits of use in food are insufficiently known and promoted.
HOHS oil fractions can replace margarine and palm oil in a healthy diet.
Objectives
Obiectivul principal este realizarea unui proiect de dezvoltare-inovare, prin aplicarea a doua tehnologii de cultura diferite cu hibrizi de floarea-soarelui HOHS, pentru obtinerea unor uleiuri cu stabilitate ridicata utilizabile in procesarea termica agroalimentara. Se urmareste incurajarea cultivarii acestor hibrizi, care prin profilul acizilor grasi asigura o mai buna conservabilitate a produselor, dar beneficiile utilizarii in alimentație sunt insuficient cunoscute si promovate.
Fractiunile uleiului HOHS pot inlocui margarina si uleiul de palmier intr-o alimentatie sanatoasa.

2 Practice Abstracts
The reluctance of small farmers to cultivate new sunflower hybrids, with the exception of the linoleic ones, is probably due to the lack of information regarding their behavior, productivity and ways of capitalization of the harvests obtained, as well as of some higher inputs generated by the price of seeds. The genetics and quality of the seeds are an element of major importance, and the contamination with classical flower should be avoided at all stages: sowing, growing season, harvesting, transport, drying, storage and processing of seeds.
The preliminary results of the cultivation of new sunflower hybrids with high content of oleic acid, oleic acid and stearic acid in the Western Plain of Romania, Timis County, Sanpetru Mare Commune, on chernozem soil revealed a good adaptability of these. In 2021, in conventional cultivation, the productivity obtained for hybrids with high oleic acid content was similar to that obtained for linoleic hybrids. The stability of the resulting oil was four times higher, reducing the degree of unsaturation delaying the appearance of oxidation products. The profile of fatty acids in the resulting oil is close to that of the sown material, both for conventional and biological culture.
The average oil content was between 39-45%, and the protein content was 17-18%.
The hybrids cultivated in 2022 showed a good adaptability to the crop, but the climatological conditions determined a low productivity in the absence of irrigation.
The advantages of using oils with a high content of oleic and stearic acid consist in the longer shelf life of thermally processed foods with them and the avoidance of the formation of trans fatty acids by processing at high temperatures.
Reticenta micilor fermieri la cultivarea unor noi hibrizi de floarea soarelui, cu exceptia celor linoleici, este probabil datorata lipsei informatiilor privitoare la comportarea acestora, productivitatea si modalitatile de valorificare ale recoltelor obtinute.
Rezultatele preliminare ale cultivarii unor noi hibrizi de floarea soarelui cu continut ridicat de acid oleic, acid oleic si stearic in Campia de Vest a Romaniei, Judetul Timis, Comuna Sanpetru Mare, pe sol cernoziomic au relevat o buna adaptabilitate a acestora. In anul 2021, in cultura conventionala, productivitatea obtinuta pentru hibrizii cu continut ridicat de acid oleic a fost similara cu cea obtinuta pentru hibrizii linoleici. Stabilitatea uleiului rezultat a fost de patru ori mai mare, reducerea gradului de nesaturare intarziind aparitia produsilor de oxidare. Profilul acizilor grasi in uleiul rezultat este apropiat cu cel al materialului insamantat, atat pentru cultura conventionala, cat si cea biologica.
Continutul mediu de ulei a fost cuprins intre 39-45%, iar continutul in proteina 17-18%.
Hibrizii cultivati in anul 2022 au prezentat o buna adaptabilitate la cultura, insa conditiile climatologice au determinat o productivitate scazuta in lipsa irigarii.
Avantajele utilizarii uleiurilor cu continut ridicat de acid oleic si stearic constau in durata mai mare de valabilitate a alimentelor procesate termic cu acestea, cat si evitarea formarii acizilor grasi trans prin procesare la temperaturi ridicate.
The expected results of the project are as follows:
- obtaining crops with a high productivity from which to obtain an oil with a good thermal stability, with uses in the agri-food sector, which requires thermal processing;
- stimulating farmers to cultivate new sunflower hybrids in order to diversify raw materials on the agri-food market;
- obtaining HOHS sunflower oil for processing in the food industry and fractions with semi-solid consistency.
Consumers are interested in a healthier diet and are constantly documenting, today more than ever, about products with nutritional properties and beneficial effects on food. Through the proposed project, HOHS oil fractions can replace margarine and palm oil in a healthy diet. Thus, the cultivation of these hybrids, which through the profile of fatty acids ensure a better shelf life of products with increased benefits in the diet, will lead to a high market demand.
By disseminating the results obtained through the project, all these benefits will be presented, increasing the interest of producers, processors, including consumers for HOHS sunflower cultivation
Rezultatele asteptate ale proiectului sunt urmatoarele:
- obtinerea de recolte cu o productivitate ridicata din care sa se obtina un ulei cu o buna stabilitate termica, cu utilizari in sectorul agroalimentar, ce necesita procesare termica;
- stimularea fermierilor de a cultiva noi hibrizi de floarea soarelui in scopul diversificarii materiilor prime pe piata agroalimentara;
- obtinerea uleiului de floarea soarelui HOHS pentru procesare in industria alimentara si a fractiunilor cu consistenta semisolida.
Consumatorii sunt interesati de o alimentatie cat mai sanatoasa si se documenteaza in permanenta, astazi mai mult ca oricand, despre produse cu proprietati nutritive si efecte benefice asupra alimentatiei. Prin proiectul propus, fractiunile uleiului HOHS pot inlocui margarina si uleiul de palmier intr-o alimentatie sanatoasa. Astfel, cultivarea acestor hibrizi, care prin profilul acizilor grasi asigura o mai buna conservabilitate a produselor cu beneficii sporite in alimentație, va conduce la o cerere ridicata pe piata.
Prin diseminarea rezultatelor obtinute prin proiect, se vor prezenta toate aceste beneficii, crescand interesul producatorilor, procesatorilor, inclusiv a consumatorilor pentru cultura de floarea soarelui HOHS.
