However, both the area under cultivation and production have doubled due to mustard cultivation, bringing more profits to the farmers. According to the Department of Agricultural Extension, mustard production in Bangladesh has doubled in the last two years. Former agriculture secretary Sayedul Islam said, "Our ancestors used locally produced oil, including mustard oil, to prepare food. Despite the subsequent decrease in mustard and mustard oil prices, efforts are being made to achieve the target by offering various incentives and utilising fallow land. Now that suitable seeds are available, he said, the planting window has shortened, leading more farmers to engage in mustard cultivation.
