Rapeseed misery begins
>> Wednesday, April 18, 2012
Back in January I mentioned that the fields appeared to have rapeseed in them. I was wrong. It was charlock. Charlock is a weed that belongs to the brassica family the same as rapeseed but it's just a pain in the derriere for arable farmers. The fact that it was flowering in January was still a bit out of season, but hey-ho.
I took this on the 22nd April last year. Around here there will be acres and acres of bright yellow fields, beautiful to see but gosh, I'm always glad when it finally gets harvested.
