Background
• Barley is traditionally the corn of the north
– Losing acres
• How do we increase demand and therefore price?
– What are these opportunities?
– What needs to be done to realize these opportunities?

Selling/Using – Nutritional content• Bushel weight is a poor indicator of nutritional
value (NIRS calibrations available)
• Only applies if seed is not fully developed or if using screenings
• Barley is variable (Fibre, energy, protein)
– Discounted in broiler and swine diets
– Higher fiber lower starch not a problem for ruminants

More accurate formulation –Inline NIRS
• Majority of formulation based on book value minus ½ to 1 standard deviation
• Significant safety margins built into diet specifications
• Increase accuracy (reduce safety margin requirements)

Background •Barley is traditionally](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060221/5f0763387e708231d41cbba7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Formulation to a lower energy content
• Premium fuel vs regular fuel?
• Barley is higher fiber (hull) and lower energy than corn but in Canada it is often more profitable to formulate the diets to slightly lower energy content and include Barley
• Primary focus is often feed conversion ratio not feed to Cash conversion ratio
– University of Alberta/Government of Alberta conducting trials to demonstrate value
– Requires education of industry and accountants

Gut health opportunity• The fibre content is now recognized as
promoting a healthy and functioning gizzard improving bird performance
• Some producers include whole barley (up to 35% ) in diet to promote gizzard function and gut health
![Page 13: Rex Newkirk, PhD Research Chair in Feed Processing Technology€¦ · The Future of Barley Rex Newkirk, PhD Research Chair in Feed Processing Technology. Background •Barley is traditionally](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022060221/5f0763387e708231d41cbba7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Adding Value – Novel Properties• Barley have unique attributes (fibre) which may
contribute to gut health in absence of antibiotics
• Studying affects of B-glucans from Barley on gut health in Broiler chickens
– PhD student
– Studying soluble B-Glucans X enzyme
• Role of insoluble fibre on gut health
– Collaborator with UofA in Science cluster application

Adding value – Reducing Fusarium
• Improving value of fusarium infected grains
– Sorting to removed infected materials (BoMill)
– Mechanical followed by aspiration
– Oxidation
– M.Sc. Student starting in July
– SK Barley seed funding

Sorting to Add value• Can sort with NIT into
higher value fractions (look through the hull) BoMill IQ
• Many calls from producers looking for practical solutions
• Producer workshop –July 22nd, Melfort
