Choosing the right barley variety isn’t just about selecting a name from a list—it’s about finding the best fit for your farm’s unique needs. That’s where we, as Territory Managers, come in. Our goal isn’t just about a seed sale—it’s to understand your land, your goals, and your challenges. Whether you’re looking for a high-paying malt variety, tough and reliable feed barley, or a disease-resistant option, we’re here to help you maximize performance and profitability.
If you’re thinking about switching varieties, may I offer a simple piece of advice? …..it’s always smart to start on a smaller scale. Testing a new barley variety on a quarter section lets you see how it performs under your specific conditions and management style. Once you see the results, you can confidently expand to larger acreages. We can match varieties to your conditions, but the best way to know for sure is to try it out yourself.
