HL Deb 01 August 1984 vol 455 c866WA
Lord Ironside

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many hectares of oil seed rape have been grown on United Kingdom farms in 1984, and what the total straw yield from this crop is likely to be at the end of this year's harvest.

Lord Belstead

This information is not yet available. Details of the number of hectares of oil seed rape grown in 1984 will be published with the June Census results later this year. No information is currently available on the weight of straw produced by oil seed rape crops.
