Constituent	Why It's Analyzed	Measurement Point
Moisture	Excessive moisture can lead to sticky product, which may also be more susceptible to spoilage.	Whole grain analysis Ground grain analysis Cake/expeller/meal processing Oil analysis
Protein	Protein content is a payment criterion for oilseed suppliers	Whole grain analysis Ground grain analysis Cake/expeller/meal processing Oil analysis
Oil	As their name implies, oil availability of an oilseed is essential to quality	Whole grain analysis Ground grain analysis Cake/expeller/meal processing Oil analysis
Free Fatty Acids (FFA)	An important source of energy in processed foods.	Whole grain analysis Ground grain analysis Cake/expeller/meal processing Oil analysis
Fatty Acids (Palmitic Acid, Stearic Acid, Oleic Acid, and Linoleic Acid)	All relating to the quality of finished products like butter and oil. These fatty acids offer health benefits to consumers, including skin health and reducing cholesterol.	Whole grain analysis Ground grain analysis Cake/expeller/meal processing Oil analysis

Parameter	Why It's Analyzed
Nitrogen-Based Nutrients (Ammonia, Urea, TKN, Nitrate, Nitrite)	Nitrogen is an important nutrient for all oilseeds. However, too much Nitrogen in the soil can be harmful to the groundwater. Urea and TKN content also have a role in animal feed quality.
Phosphorus-Based Nutrients (TP, o-Phosphate, Phosphate)	Phosphorus is applied to the soil via fertilizer throughout the growing season but is especially important during the early season to help develop strong roots.
Potassium	Potassium may need to be added via fertilizer at different stages of the growing season.
Other Compounds in Crop Production	Boron, copper, iron, manganese, zinc, and other minerals all have a role in crop production.
