Abstract

Barley is one of the four major feed grains grown in the United States. However, if present trends continue, it will be produced primarily for malting purposes within the next 10 to 20 years. Demand for malt is increasing at an annual rate of 3 to 5 percent while the demand for barley for livestock feed is largely residual. As this change in primary demand occurs, barley production will require new policy considerations. These tables and references are a supplement to an earlier report U.S. BARLEY INDUSTRY (AER-395).

The tables, figures, and selected bibliography included in this report are published as a supplement to the research study, U.S. Barley Industry (AER-395) conducted by the Commodity Economics Division, Economics, Statistics, and Cooperatives Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture. This supplement includes more data and a longer time series for certain key data. It also includes more detailed illustrations of product flows and an expanded bibliography. More specifically, the statistical data included in this report expand previous data on off-farm marketing practices, industry con- centration, and industry sales estimates which will likely come to the forefront as certain industry trends occur.
