The present invention relates to production of renewable fuels and fuelcomponents fromplant oil originating from at least one Brassica species, where said Brassicaspecies, dopedwith at least one nitrogen-fixing bacteria, is cultivated to obtain Brassicaseed oil, andfeedstock comprising the Brassica seed oil is converted in a converting step,wherebyrenewable fuel or renewable fuel components are obtained. The invention alsorelates to amethod for reducing nitrate release in renewable fuel production. Further, theinventionrelates to a method for reducing greenhouse gases in renewable fuelproduction.
