$30.50 / 50 lb Bag - Signed license agreement required prior to shipment
Barley is an annual cereal grain used primarily for livestock feed, forage, and malting. Barley grain has a similar nutrient profile to corn making it a valuable and versatile feed grain. Spring Barley seed is planted early in the spring and prefers well-drained, fertile soils for optimum production (avoid ground that had corn as the previous crop). We have field-tested organic, 2-row, and 6-row barley seed varieties for sale online that fit the diverse needs of producers.
