<strong>Borage</strong> crop is cultivated in several countries for its seed oil. Majorly produced in Canada, New Zeal<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> the<br />

UK, in earlier times it was considered to belong only to the Mediterranean region. The borage oil production<br />

varies widely with some years of oversupply <strong>and</strong> some years of under-supply. Canada, which is one of the major<br />

borage seed producers has been highly unstable in the recent times. Favorable weather conditions in Canada<br />

have benefitted borage growers to a great extent as it helps them grow good quality seeds at lower costs.<br />

Nevertheless, there is a high risk of crop failure due to erratic early frost in the region<br />
