A serving of the seeds also contains about 6 grams of protein and 2.5 grams of fiber. “Fat, fiber and protein play an important role in satiety, the feeling of fullness,” says Rumsey.

Commercial interest in sunflowers as an oil crop was slow to develop across most of Europe and North America. In contrast, Russians were using sunflowers as an oil crop by the late 18th century, perhaps because the Russian Orthodox Church did not prohibit the oil’s use during Lent. By the end of the 19th century, Russians had selected highly productive oil and confectionery varieties, which were re-imported to North America in the baggage of Russian immigrants.

Zimbio reports that the star fines the venue $5,000 if her dressing room gets an incoming call. Then there’s all the junk food she requests, like Doritos, Pop Tarts and KFC.

Yield losses when only leaves are killed compared to if the entire plant is frozen are less because the surviving stalk can remobilize carbohydrates from the stalk tissue to the developing ear for some time after the damage occurs. Of course, this is assuming the necessary heat units are accumulated to make a difference. If the necessary heat units aren’t received, a premature black layer may form, ending further grain fill. A killing frost (-2°C or lower) prior to physiological maturity where the entire stalk and leaves are frozen will cause premature black layer development. Grain filling will cease and light weight, chaffy corn will result. Yield losses from total plant death prior to physiological maturity are estimated to be 55, 41, and 12 per cent for soft dough, full dent and half-milk line stages of development, respectively. Since the grain moisture content will be generally greater than 35 per cent, substantial field dry down will be needed prior to harvesting.
