Barley Quality • The average GB specific weight for barley is seen at 62.9kg/hl, this is lower than last year’s 66.4kg/hl and the lowest on records back to 1977. Scotland had one of the lower specific weights among the regions at 62.3kg/hl with the highest seen in the East of England at 64.1kg/hl. Poor weather in Scotland has led to a notably lower spring barley average specific weight of 62.3kg/hl compared to 66.3kg/hl last year. • Winter barley fared slightly better but still below last year The highest average specific weight was recorded on the Flagon winter variety (65.2kg/hl) while Concerto had the highest average specific weight amongst the spring varieties at 62.4kg/hl. • Nitrogen content average 2012 GB nitrogen content is seen at 1.60%, better than last year’s 1.71% which was heavily impacted by drought in some English regions in 2011.Improvements on last year were seen across all English regions however nitrogen content in Scotland increased slightly year-on-year. Average winter barley nitrogen content was seen at 1.69% (1.89% 2011) with the spring crop also improving to 1.57% (1.66% 2011)
