Avena Arvensis

Avena arvensis is a common annual grass that thrives in disturbed soils and agricultural fields. It is often considered a weed due to its rapid growth and ability to spread easily. This plant has narrow, linear leaves and produces small, spike-like inflorescences. It is native to Europe and has been introduced to many parts of the world. Despite its invasive tendencies, Avena arvensis plays a role in soil stabilization and serves as a food source for various insects and animals.
