Rye Grain Exploratory Journey
Author: Chad Lee
Planning Unit: Plant and Soil Sciences
Major Program: Grain Crops
Outcome: Initial Outcome
With interest in gorwing rye as a grain crop in Kentucky, two farmers and I traveled to Germany and Poland to learn about rye production. That region is the most productive for rye in the world. They have centuries of experience raising rye. We gained some useful knowledge and ideas on how to make rye work in Kentucky. The trip was heavily subsidized by a major distilling company in Kentucky. We appreciate their partnership in this endeavor.
