Turnip

The turnip or white turnip (Brassica rapa subsp. rapa) is a root vegetable commonly grown in temperate climates worldwide for its white, fleshy taproot. Small, tender varieties are grown for human consumption, while larger varieties are grown as feed for livestock. "Turnip" is also used in Northern England, Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall, Devon, and parts of Canada (Quebec, Ontario, Newfoundland, Manitoba and the Maritimes), to regularly refer to rutabaga, also known as neep or swede, a larger, yellow root vegetable in the same genus (Brassica).
