The renewable energy acquisition reduces dependence on fossil energy, which has a beneficial impact not only on agriculture but also on the country's economic development, since it has reduced the amount of bad emissions and the quantity of imports. This study is to determine the carbon content, ash content and yield influencing factors of linseed in order to clarify the possible use of alternative energy. The linseed is suitable for energy production from biomass, because it is derived from different products, which are used for solid fuel and bio diesel production.
