Rape
Rape n - A yellow-flowered plant cultivated for its seeds, which yield a useful oil, and as a fodder plant
Rape is a very versatile Brassica, being suited to a wide range of soil fertility and environmental conditions, and is either spring and/or late-summer sown. It is well suited to dryland conditions where it has a very good record of on-farm performance. Rape is proven to have excellent grazing tolerance, making it very reliable for multigrazing. Rape is particularly good for lamb finishing in summer or in dry regions and has good application in deer, beef and other drystock operations.
