In late spring there is suddenly an explosion of yellow in the landscape where the fields of Oilseed Rape come into bloom. It is grown for animal feed, vegetable oil and surprisingly, biodiesel (wander if I could grow some to power my little car ;-)). The flowers are also good for honey production, but apparently because of it's strong taste, it is usually blended.
Beautiful oilseed rape fields in Ireland...

It looks very similar to what we call Mustard (which is also what they make out of it) in the United States. I’m not sure if it is exact, but it sure looks like it in the picture.
