A high energy grain, which may be fed whole to poultry, sheep and goats but requires processing prior to feeding cattle, camelids, pigs and horses.
Feeding Recommendation Feed barley is not a complete feed and should be offered as a supplement to other feeds as part of a complete diet suitable for the type of animal being fed. For pigs and poultry ensure adequate protein is available as part of the diet. For horses, camelids and ruminants (cattle, sheep, deer) ensure adequate pasture, silage or hay is always available. Always introduce new feeds gradually. Ensure clean fresh water is always available.
