Barley imports

[glasshouse]

Has anyone else seen the story on swedish imports of malting barley?

 

[M-J-G]

Even though some buyers are telling us we might have to hold onto 20% of our crop because they have so much left in storage, I still wouldn't be surprised.

Some Maltesters often import malt. They claim they can’t get the barley. I’m sure if they offered a decent contract they would get the barley.

You may find the barley in question is used for something else.
Lager
Malt extract
Organic
Etc
Boortmalt plant at Glen Esk maltings does do small batch specialist malts.
