Replacing some existing vegetable oil crops<\/a> with camellia plants could boost cooking oil production while reducing greenhouse gas emissions, water use and pesticide use, according to a modelling study.<\/p>\n

The properties of camellia oil, also known as tea seed oil, suggest it could also be one of the healthier oils, but it is currently little-known and hardly used outside China.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
