Camelina sativa L. is imperative oilseed crop of Brassicaceae family, and fitted best in different farming systems followed by farmers in agricultural countries. The byproducts of Camelina sativa L. (cake, seeds, oil) have immense use in different industries includes food, cosmetics, biofuel and animal feed industry. The seeds of C. sativa L. contains significant proportion of α-linolenic acid (C18:3n-3; ALA), oil in seeds and cake up to 36.7%, 36.8% and 22.7%, respectively. Further, tocopherol contents ranges up to 900 mg/kg of camelina oil. Thus, the processed byproducts of C. sativa L. improved n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and ALA of broiler meat. In addition, fatty acids profiling significantly decreased the n-6/n-3 ratio, thus addition of camelina cake in broiler feed also improved the human nutrition. However, increased proportion of camelina seeds in poultry feed showed non-significant improvement on broiler health and meat quality. Some studies reported the negative effects of camelia cake (> 10%) on meat feed digestibility subsequently lowers the broiler growth attributes. The carcass related qualities of chicken were similar to the birds. And, the addition of camelina did not improved the efficacy of sensory organs of poultry chicken. The present review indicate the prospects of camelina plants in agricultural farming system and its possible benefits to poultry feed industry. However, a comprehensive research on the appropriate concentration of camelina byproducts in poultry feed industry should be carried out in future for promising results.
