>Rape (canola) here is a great honey producing plant that offers the bees
but really the beekeepers here in our prairies great yields
You are lucky! The varieties of rape being grown here these days give far less honey than we had 40 years ago. It also flowers much earlier which causes problems with bees deserting the supers on cold nights leading to granulation in the comb.
