Subject: Re: Barley questions



Dalton, OH

I agree with Ed.  Our farm raised winter barley for many years for hog feed.  It will do 100-125 bu+, but if you are going for the top grain yield, don't use it as a nurse crop and expect to get much as it will lodge and choke out the crop underneath.  If you are really having a bad day, it might even grow up through the lodged barley and make it impossible to harvest!!  I have no expierence with spring barley and that may be a whole different ball game.
