1 – INTRODUCCIÓN

Industria de la semilla de mostaza en Canadá
La semilla de mostaza (Brassica spp.) es un cultivo de temporada fresca, anual, que se puede
cultivar durante una corta temporada, comúnmente en rotación con cereales de grano pequeño.
Siendo un pariente de canola, la semilla de mostaza tiene la ventaja de ser más tolerante a la
sequía, el calor, y las heladas. Canadá produce tres tipos de mostaza: amarilla (Sinapis alba),
marrones y oriental (Brassica juncea).
Hasta la fecha, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) ha llevado a cabo la mayoría de las
investigaciones acerca del grano de mostaza en Canadá. Sin embargo, recientemente, la
industria ha acordado el cobro de una tasa para apoyar proyectos de investigación. A lo largo
de los últimos diez años, las estaciones de investigación en el oeste de Canadá han lanzado
constantemente variedades mejoradas de este cultivo. Actualmente, las variedades de mostaza
oriental y amarilla tienen características que son específicas de los distintos segmentos del
mercado. Los objetivos actuales de reproducción incluyen el desarrollo de cultivos mejorados
de todas las variedades de mostaza y una serie de mejoras en cuanto a calidad, incluyendo
una mejor adaptación a los suelos semiáridos, y el aumento de rendimiento, así como en aceite
y proteínas. Algunas variedades con bajo contenido de aceite también se han desarrollado para
los propósitos de molienda en seco. Recientemente, AAFC desarrolló una nueva planta de
mostaza con calidad canola que podría ser cultivada en las regiones más secas del oeste de
Canadá.
-
Valor nutricional
Las semillas de mostaza (amarilla) contienen 20 a 30% de proteínas, 24 a 35% de aceite, 6 a
12% de lípidos y 12 a 18% de carbohidratos.
El aceite de mostaza contiene 93% isotiocianato de alilo, que ayuda contra el crecimiento de
mohos, levaduras, listeria, E. coli y varios otros patógenos de los alimentos
-
Productos y aplicaciones
La semilla de mostaza se utiliza principalmente en las industrias de condimentos y alimentos,
en forma de semillas o aceite. También se utiliza como emulsionante, y para el control de la
textura en muchos productos (el salvado de la mostaza amarilla contiene aproximadamente
25% de arabinogalactano, una sustancia mucilaginosa).
El grano de mostaza amarilla, el más suave de los tres tipos, es adecuado para una amplia
gama de aplicaciones, incluyendo la molienda seca para harina, la molienda en húmedo, para
pastas de mostaza, y las semillas enteras, para mezclas de especias, procesamiento de carne
y otros productos alimenticios. El contenido de aceite de la semilla de mostaza amarilla es la
más baja de los tres tipos de mostaza, situándose en aproximadamente 27%.
La mostaza marrón y la semilla de mostaza oriental son picantes. La semilla de mostaza
marrón se procesa en forma de harina que se utiliza para producir mostaza picante que se
emplea en productos europeos. El contenido de aceite en la mostaza marrón es de alrededor
del 36%. El grano de mostaza oriental se utiliza a menudo para producir aceites de cocina
picantes. Hay variedades de semillas de mostaza oriental cultivadas en Canadá que tienen
contenidos de aceite de hasta 50%, aunque el contenido medio de aceite es de
aproximadamente el 39%.

3 - REQUISITOS DE INGRESO
- Requisitos de los Productos Alimenticios en Canadá
Todos los productos alimenticios están reglamentados por el Sistema de Regulación de
Canadá para Alimentos con beneficios para la salud.
La Ley de Alimentos y Drogas (Food and Drugs Act) es la legislación básica que regula la
seguridad y la calidad nutricional de los alimentos que se venden en Canadá. La Ley y su
Reglamento establecen las condiciones sobre:
- el etiquetado, la publicidad y los reclamos de los alimentos
- las normas y los requisitos de composición de los alimentos
- fortificación
- alimentos para regímenes especiales
- aditivos alimentarios
- seguridad química y microbiana
- medicamentos veterinarios
- material de embalaje
- pesticidas
El papel de la ley y el reglamento es proteger al público contra los riesgos para la salud y el
fraude con relación a la venta de alimentos y bebidas, medicamentos, productos naturales para
la salud, dispositivos médicos y cosméticos.

PLANTS WITH NOVEL TRAITS/GENETICALLY MODIFIED PLANTS:
When importing plants or viable plant material, importers should be aware that if the
imported product is a plant with a novel trait (PNT), it may be subject to additional
regulatory requirements.
PNTs are plants into which a trait(s) has been intentionally introduced that is new to
plants of the same species cultivated in Canada and has the potential to affect the
specific use and safety of the plant with respect to the environment and human health.
PNTs are a broad category of plants that can be produced through a variety of methods,
including genetic engineering. For example, a plant may be considered a PNT if it has
been modified to display a new trait resulting in increased weediness or invasiveness
potential.
Please refer to Directive 96-13 for additional information and regulatory requirements.
Please note that PNTs/genetically modified plants that have been authorized for
unconfined release* into the Canadian environment by the CFIA are not subject to any
additional import requirements beyond those applicable to their conventional
counterparts.
* Unconfined Release of PNTs
The Plant Biosafety Office of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency is responsible for
the regulation of plants with novel traits (PNTs) in Canada in regards to environmental
safety. Before a PNT can be authorized for unconfined environmental release, a
determination on the risk to the environment, including to human health, is required.
More information on environmental safety assessment can be found at :
