Mustard! Actually I thought it was rapeseed at first, France is covered in these yellow fields as well at the moment. A friend spoke to some farmers explaining these are actually mustard fields. It’s probably in response to the mustard shortages during COVID, so farmers are being pushed to grow mustard, so Europe isn’t dependent on North American exports anymore.
A large chunk of our economy depends on a steady flow of mustard. That’s how we make mayonnaise, aioli, vinaigrette …

Yes it’s rapeseed, for oil. So pretty and eye-catching although the name is unfortunate. Almost two decades ago, on the coach to school, we drove past many of these yellow fields and 30 pre-teens would shout, “RAPEseeeed!” Ah, memories.

They’re fields owned by the paint company ‘Dulux’ where they have planted the flower ‘banana cream’ – it’s used to give the paint it’s colour

They have called it “Rape Fields” which I really wonder has this been thought out
Stuff stinks, even makes the air thick and sticky when you cycle past it. It horrible stuff but farmers get subsidised to grow it. Its toxic afaic it’s in loads of foods and people cooking in.

Rapeseed, a really useful plant but it might as well be fields of tear gas cannisters if you have hay fever.

fun fact – Rapeseed is an often hated crop by the public in the UK, because people believe its a particularly nasty contributor to hayfever.
However this is a total ~~urban~~ *rural* legend.
Rapeseed with its bright colours is insect pollinated not wind pollinated – therefore its pollen is sticky and not really a contributor to hayfever unless you’re ramming the flower up your nose.
The reason why people associate it with hayfever is because its flowering season coincides with the pollen season of many trees including Oak and Birch.
