Nikon D60, West Yorkshire, Clifford, UK Oilseed rape The word “rape” as applied to oilseed crops is derived from the Latin word rapum that means turnip. Today turnip rapes and the similar but more common swede rapes are grown for their oil and are widely recognised by their bright yellow flowers that can be seen from late april onwards. Rapeseed crops have been cultivated throughout much of the world for at least four thousand years although it was not until the 13th century in Europe that this was done on a commercial scale. At the time its primary use was as a lamp oil but prior to this the oils had been used in soaps and for other purposes. In 1740 Carl Linnaeus noted that the crop had a useful soil improving role that aided the performance of following crops. This is a role that is still vital today and oilseed rape is known as a “break crop” – one that helps improve the yield of the following cereal crops, in particular wheat. Despite its useful role as a break crop, oilseed rape cannot be grown too regularly in the same field for the risk of a serious disease build up. Oilseed rape is always grown as part of a farm rotation and rarely returns to the same field more than one year in six. Other important break crops include, potatoes, sugar beet, grass leys, peas and beans all of which allow insects and fungal pests to die out between cereal crops. In the UK the oilseed rape crop was barely known until the 1970’s when the explosion in commodity prices and targeted support from the CAP raised the price to a sufficiently high level that farmers chose to grow it. Now, around 400,000 hectares of oil seed rape is grown annually, roughly one eighth of the area of wheat and barley. Most of this is autumn sown and known as winter oilseed rape. Oilseed rape is not a very high yielding crop by comparison with cereals. Typically winter rape yields around 3 tonnes per hectare compared with 8 tonnes per hectare for wheat. However, with a higher price and the “break crop” benefit to the following wheat crop, oilseed rape remains an important crop in the arable rotation and currently the UK is about 90% self sufficient. / Today’s varieties of oilseed rape have been bred to provide an oil that is suitable for use in cooking and food processing. Known as vegetable oil, the oil is widely used by the food industry and is now being increasingly processed for use as biodiesel.

Stay Close to the River Look! I built a shrine to you. Right here. Right here. At the end of all your brave and brilliant quests for something better, I’ll still be right here. Right here. Although you’ve forgotten. You’ve forgotten to lean close when you weep, when you weep from your lilted loneliness. Touch our hand to your cheek and feel the river that has run through a million billion wondrous earth bodies—this majestic membrane that masks our starlit eternal glory. Such is the game of remembering. If you somehow lose the link to this poem, don’t worry. There’s a billion more where this came from. Just look around you. Stay close, Dear One. Stay close to the river. ~ Anonymous

Nikon D60, as is Convolvulus is a genus of about 250 species of flowering plants in the bindweed family Convolvulaceae, with a cosmopolitan distribution. Common names include bindweed and morning glory, both names shared with other closely related genera. / They are annual or perennial herbaceous vines and (a few species) woody shrubs, growing to 0.3-3 m tall. The leaves are spirally arranged, and the flowers trumpet-shaped, mostly white or pink, but blue, violet, purple or yellow in some species. / Many of the species are problematic weeds, which can swamp other more valuable plants by climbing over them, but some are also deliberately grown for their attractive flowers. However, some other species are globally threatened. / This species occurs in many temperate regions. They are mostly slender, creeping winding vines. A few are small perennials. They have simple, alternate leaves and wide funnel-shaped flowers.
