Idaho Spring Barley Production Guide

Barley is one of Idaho’s most important crops. Indeed, since 2016 state yields have topped all others in the nation. This four-color, 86-page guide amply updates the 2003 edition by compiling research from twenty-eight experts on a wide variety of management practices and varieties. With chapters on variety selection; seeding practices; harvesting and storage; and lodging, nutrient, weed, pest, irrigation, disease, and crop residue management, plus so much more (including budgeting production costs), growers will come away with a stronger understanding of all the latest techniques to help Idaho barley farmers continue to produce the malting crop profitably and sustainably.
