Castor Oil Press

The Castor seed, also known as hempseed, is a mature seed of Castor in spurge family. Castor is a perennial herb which is native to Africa. Nowadays, all countries in the world are planted castor, with Brazil as the largest producer. According to legend, castor was introduced from India. Because the accumulated temperature of most of our country is not high enough in the temperate zone, the cultivated castor is an annual crop except in some parts of southern China. Our country is one of the main countries in the world that cultivate castor and produce castor seeds.
