safflower

Safflower is an oilseed crop cultivated for edible oil, animal feed, and birdseed. During sorting and cleaning, common challenges include removing stones, dust, chaff, and broken or lightweight seeds. Variations in seed size, weight, and moisture content can reduce cleaning efficiency, making careful processing essential for producing high-quality safflower seed.
