Abstract
Description
Two barley varieties, 'Glenn' and 'Park', have been developed by the North Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station in cooperation with the Agricultural Research Service, US Department of Agriculture. Glenn is a high yielding, early maturing, strong strawed variety with resistance to loose and covered smut. Glenn has not yet been classified with respect to acceptability for malting and brewing but tests have been generally favorable. Park is a strong strawed variety with superior resistance to prevalent leaf spotting diseases. Park has been classified as an acceptable variety for malting and brewing by the Malting Barley Improvement Association.
