SY Craft
2 Row Winter Malting Barley
About SY Craft
Winter malting barley is a relatively new crop in Ireland, and Seedtech has been developing suitable varieties and agronomy advice in conjunction with Boortmalt and Teagasc. As a result, malting barley is increasing in area and value. Having some of your malting contract area drilled in autumn and harvested in July is a huge bonus for spreading work and risk for growers and maltsters, making it more sustainable for the whole industry.
