I love that kind of scene - could I have viewed it out the bus window
when I headed west from your place back on 2005? Nice pic
I remember Canola as an "invented" name too..

Yes it is. We grow a lot of it in the uk. It is a type of brassica

All words are invented. Some have just been around longer than others.
The name canola is a contraction of Canada and ola, meaning oil
(appears to be of Gaelic/Irish origin). To earn the name canola,
products must meet an internationally regulated standard.
Canola is the world's only "Made in Canada" crop. It was developed by
researchers from Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada and the University
of Manitoba in the 1970s, using traditional plant breeding techniques.

I believe Quadrotriticale was also invented in Canada......
