Barley

Barley is an important agricultural crop and one of the oldest cultivated plants in human history, first grown about 10,000 years ago.

Barley grain is used for food, technical, and feed purposes, including in the brewing industry and for producing pearl and barley groats. Barley is one of the most valuable concentrated feeds for animals due to its high-quality protein and rich starch content.

In Russia, approximately 70% of barley is utilized as animal feed.
