In this week's Podcast:  One of our early major nectar flows comes in the form of the Oilseed Rape crops sown widely by farmers across the UK. It brings with it a ready source of nectar and pollen for our bees, but also some challenges in terms of timing and extraction, here's my take on a love/hate relationship some beekeepers have with this early-season plant. 
Hi, I’m Stewart Spinks and welcome to Episode 252 of my podcast, Beekeeping Short and Sweet.
