Barley variety evaluation New barley varieties are considered for evaluation if: The variety is of better quality (agronomic and/or malting) than the variety it is to replace or has some quality or agronomic characteristic that may be of benefit to the industry.
10 s of thousands new crosses every year Breeder Evaluation - Agronomic & NIR malting selection Selections or introduced lines from OS Breeder Evaluation - Agronomic & micromalting selection Industry Evaluation - Commercial Malting Pilot Brewing 2-3 elite lines each year
Barley requirement l Must meet malt 1 receival standards Eastern Australia l set by Grain Trade Australia (GTA) http://www.graintrade.org.au/commodity_standards Western Australia l set by Grains Industry Association of Western Australia (GIWA) http://www.giwa.org.au/standards
Barley requirement l Malting barley standards include Purity Moisture Protein Screenings Germination Defective grain Contaminants Grain storage is important

Summary l Australia has a healthy barley industry l The local industry leads a well established malting barley evaluation process l Barley breeding has been privatised creating good competition between breeders l Every year a number of potential new malting barley lines are being evaluated and commercialised, providing greater choice and better quality for farmers and brewers
