Barley
Barley
Barley is used in the production of feed for cattle and pigs. A proportion of the crop in Ireland is also specially grown as “malting barley” to be used to make beer and whiskey by the brewing industry. Pictured above are combine harvesters gathering the crop.

Cereals
Cereals
Ireland is a net importer of cereal grains, but there is a very specialised and efficient group of growers producing grain in Ireland for the home market. Crops are either sown in the autumn or spring, but all are generally harvested between July and September. Spring Barley (pictured) is the most popular cereal crop, grown by over 9,000 farmers in 2010. It is used for the malting, seed and feed industries. Winter wheat, winter barley and winter and spring oats are the other important grain crops produced in Ireland.
