Rape Herbs

Rape is a flowering herb of the mustard family. Farmers raise rape as a pasture crop and for processing into livestock feed. One variety of rape is grown for its oil-bearing seeds. Rape oil is used as a cooking and salad oil and in manufacture of such products as margarine, soap, and industrial lubricants.

Rape is raised chiefly in Asia, Europe, and New Zealand. It grows about 3 feet tall. It has slender branches covered with whitish-green leaves. The plant grows pale yellow flowers that are about 1/2 inch long. Depending on the variety, a rape plant may be an annual or biennial. Annual rapes grow and die within one year. Biennial rapes live for two growing seasons.
