    Interested in opinions here.
    In my area I gave up planting it from oversupply creating not enough spread from feed.

      Spring fd barley is $8 here. They would have to kiss my --- for me to grow malt again. I grew it for years until I got tired of the games. It is the last crop choice on this farm.

        Here malt is 1.50 per bushel premium now..
        All was very dry so no issues with that.

                Malt around Calgary $8.50, but feed price is $8. What value is uncontracted malt there?
