An experiment was conducted to study the nutritional composition of oil cakes of four released and two line cultivars of mustard and rapeseed (Brassica spp.). SAU Sarisha-2 had the highest amount of oil cake (61.26%) while BARI Sarisha-9 contained lowest amount of oil cake (59.45%). The highest dry weights of cake (56.56%), ash content (14.00%) and protein content (28.05%) was obtained from SAU Sarisha-2 and the lowest value obtained from BARI sarisha-9 which was (54.68%), (11.00%) and (25.05%) respectively. The highest amount of carbohydrate was found in Tori-7 (19.08%) and it was lowest in SAU Sarisha-2 (14.51%). Calcium and Magnesium content ranged from 0.722% to 1.006% and 0.370% to 0.838% respectively. Significantly highest amount of calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg) and Iron (Fe) was observed in Tori-7 (1.006%), (0.838%) and (101.3 ppm) respectively while the lowest amount of Ca (0.722%) from SAU sarisha-2 and lowest Mg (0.370%) and Fe (30.0 ppm) was obtained from BARI Sarisha-9. Copper and Zinc content ranged from 1.205 to 3.955 ppm and 24.30 to 51.12 ppm respectively. Cu and Zn content was highest in Tori-7×BARI Sarisha-6 (3.955 ppm) and (51.12 ppm) respectively while they are lowest in SAU Sarisha-2 (1.205 ppm) and (24.30 ppm) respectively. Gross energy ranged from 518.9 to 540.3 kcal g-1 and it was highest in BARI Sarisha-9 (540.3 kcal g-1) and lowest in SAU Sarisha-2 (518.9 kcal g-1).
