Sažetak
The objective of this paper was to determine the biomass production of three rapeseed cultivars - Alaska, Bristol and Eurol - in a three-year period. Stand was determined for each cultivar, as well as whole plant mass and height, number of branches and stem mass for the purpose of determining the biomass production per each cultivar. In order to determine to which extent it is possible for rapeseed biomass to replace oil, calorimeter was used to measure heating values. Furthermore, ash, volatile and combustible matter, C-fix, sulphur (combustible and bound) as well as volatile components were determined.
