Rapeseed flowers
Rapeseed oil, also known as oilseed rape, is used in the manufacture of biodiesel. It is usually combined with fossil fuel diesel, but can also be used on its own. In comparison to other oil sources, such as soya beans, rapeseed produces more oil per acre of land. Growing biofuels changes land usage patterns. The more biofuels that are grown, the less land there will be for growing food crops. This leads to concerns of future global food shortages.
