Didn't realise it required pollination by insects. Good to know though.
Thanks

Re: A question about U.K. farm land
But what if we lay flat on our backs, in a field of blooming rape seed, and shake the plants above us as we snort in?
I'm only affected by oak pollen, but I can live with it. I used to take all kinds of prescription medicine for this, but I found that I could just use my will power and wash out my head with some saline solution every day. Those yellow fields looks are worth it, even if they were to cause allergies.
