Manitoba Mushroom Growers Association
Although barley is grown for food, about half the world’s
production is used to make whiskey and beer. Like rye,
barley is used as a flavouring agent. Barley also provides
enzymes that convert starch from any grain into fermentable
sugar that makes alcohol. Barley grows best on the Prairies
and Manitoba is one of the most productive growing areas in
the world. |
