Castor (Ricinus communis): An Underutilized Oil Crop in the
Castor belongs to a monotypic genus Ricinus and subtribe Ricininae. It is one of the oldest plants, getting importance as an agricultural crop for subtropical and tropical countries in the world. Castor is a hardy plant, requires low input, tolerates marginal soils, is easy to establish in the field, is resistant to drought, and gives yield 350–900 kg oil per hectare. Castor oil shows great
Biofuel plantations have been hyped as a means to reinvigorate Africa’s rural areas. Yet there is still apprehension about the negative environmental and social impacts of large-scale commercial biofuel production around rising food prices, land grabbing, ecological damage, and disruption of rural livelihoods. Given the extent of Jatropha curcas production in Ghana and Ethiopia and Castor

castor-oil plant, ( Ricinus communis ), large plant of the spurge family ( Euphorbiaceae ), grown commercially for the pharmaceutical and industrial uses of its oil and for use in landscaping. Probably native to tropical Africa, the castor-oil plant has become naturalized throughout warm areas of the world.
Physicochemical characteristics of castor oil from local wild
Physicochemical characteristics of castor oil from seeds of the local wild castor plant (Ricinus communis) found in Ghana were determined to evaluate its suitability for exploitation for industrial purposes. The castor seeds were found to be rich in oil, containing 57 per cent castor oil of which 37 per cent was easily expressed by cold pressing.
Ricinus communis, the castor bean [1] or castor oil plant, [2] is a species of perennial flowering plant in the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae. It is the sole species in the monotypic genus, Ricinus, and subtribe, Ricininae. The evolution of castor and its relation to other species are currently being studied using modern genetic tools. [3]
Castor-Oil-Plant--Morphology-Habitat-And-Its-Health-Benefits
The castor oil plant is a fast-growing, suckering perennial shrub or occasionally a soft wooded small tree up to 6 meter or more, but it is not hardy in nature. This plants was cultivated for leaf and flower colors and for oil production. Leaves are green or reddish in colour and about 30-60 cm in diameter.
The castor plant, which can be grown as an annual crop and is feasible with both productive and low-maintenance, is of particular scientific interest (Baldwin and Cossar 2009). Significant strides in the use of castor oil plants as biofactories were accomplished once the toxicity of the seeds was removed (Sousa et al. 2017).
