===Kenaf seed oil===
Kenaf seeds yield an edible [[vegetable oil]]. The kenaf seed oil is also used for cosmetics, industrial [[lubricants]] and for [[biofuel]] production. Kenaf oil is high in omega [[polyunsaturated fatty acid]]s (PUFAs). Kenaf seed oil contains a high percentage of [[linoleic acid]] (Omega-6) a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA). Linoleic acid (C18:2) is the dominant PUFA, followed by [[oleic acid]] (C18:1). [[Alpha-linolenic acid]] (C18:3) is present in 2 to 4 percent.

Kenaf seed oil is 20.4% of the total seed weight, similar to that of cotton seed.{{Citation needed|date=January 2010}}
