Gopal, Barley
A hulless awned 2 row barley from India.
Gopal produces gorgeous and highly nutritious dark purple grain high in anthocyanin.
Additional Info:
-Dark purple grain
-2.5” grain heads
-29” tall
-Above average nutrient content
-short bushy plants with very high number of tillers
-High yield for a 2 row barley
-Very cold tolerant
We’ve been selecting Gopal for tillering for the last 4 years, and although yields are typically lower for 2 row barley, our Gopal has exceeded well over 100 tillers with overall yields now comparable to 6 row varieties.
Gopal is free threshing but does require a bit more effort compared to 6 row types.
Our experiments with fall planting barley have shown that Gopal has the potential to survive winter where snow pack coverage is less than 4 months.
