    Can someone tell me what this crop is? It looks like it may be rapeseed from which diesel fuel is made.

    Or, could it be hops from which beer is made???

    I'm hoping the latter.

    I love my beer and when I came across that field, I thought it might be hops.

    Hops are flowers, and they don't look like that when growing. More like this:

    Not a grain farmer, nor have I played one on TV, but I'd guess that's barley. An even more key ingredient in beer. :D

    Neither, it's wheat or Barley, difficult to tell (for me) at that stage, I think Barley has longer 'ears'.....

    I don't know if my report qualifies as quality enough, but I figure I can as well ask. Link in my sig.

    This can be very different.
    Because you should include multiple viewing angles.
    France and Italy have really become quite expensive.
    Germany is more price value today. Especially the areas to the east.
    (Thuringian forest Saxon Switzerland, Elbe Sandstone Mountains)
    Czech Republic is inexpensive
    and Romania's even cheap.
    The most expensive property (pictures) cost 30 € with breakfast
    Located in the heart of Sibiu directly on the market.
    The cheapest € 8

    You live in London yet think Europe is expensive? Scandinavia, yes and Norway especially, Switzerland too but elsewhere there's alway inexpensive options, particularly out east.
