Barley yield

Hordeum vulgare L.

Barley yield is an integral indicator of productivity, measured by the mass of grain per unit area at a standard moisture content of 12–14%. It is determined by the balance of stand density, number of grains per ear, and 1000-grain weight.

In the reference 842 varieties crop Barley, where this is mentioned in the description.

Biological barley yield is forecasted before harvest through sampling and recording productive stems, the number of grains per ear, and the 1000-grain weight. In professional practice, the values are recalculated to standard moisture content, and the final productivity reflects the effectiveness of the applied agricultural technology.

Winter barley has a higher productivity potential, reaching 70–80 dt/ha under favorable conditions and over 100 dt/ha in specific areas, whereas for spring barley, a level starting from 40 dt/ha is considered good. Under stress conditions or drought, the yield of spring forms can drop to 20–25 dt/ha.
