The genus Brassica belongs to the family Brassicaceae (cruciferae) comprising of about 100 species mainly grown for vegetables, oil, fodder or condiments. Brassica is predominately cultivated in Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh and Gujrat. It grows under diverse agro-ecological situations such as timely sown/late sown, rainfed/irrigated, sole and mixed crop with cereals (wheat and barley etc.) and Rabi (October-April) pulses (Chickpea, Lentil etc.).
