Rapeseed is a flowering plant in the mustard family, known for its bright yellow flowers. It is primarily cultivated for its seeds, which are used to produce canola oil, a popular cooking oil. The plant thrives in cool climates and is often grown in fields across Europe, Canada, and parts of Asia. The seeds of rapeseed are rich in oil and protein, making them valuable for both culinary and industrial uses. In addition to oil production, rapeseed is also used as animal feed and in the production of biodiesel, contributing to sustainable energy solutions.
