I never heard of this oilseed before, but ran across an article how it is being looked at as a low input crop that can be grown with no tillage, or herbicide and produces an edible oil and also valuable as a bio diesel source. http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/proceedings1993/v2-314.html It is highly suited to the upper midwest states like SoDak, Nodak and Mn. That got me thinking if this took off as a viable crop what the nectar potential might be for beekeepers in this region. Its from the Brassicaceae family which includes mustard and rapeseed so one would think it might be a nectar producer. Anyone have any information or experience with this plant? **************************************************** * General Information About BEE-L is available at: * * http://www.honeybeeworld.com/bee-l/default.htm * ****************************************************
