      Barley is a type of cereal grass in the genus Hordeum and was one of the first cultivated grains. One way to classify Barley is by rows of grain on the grain head. Wild barley typically has 2 rows of grains heads while most cultivated barley has 6 rows. Four row heads are also possible. Like wheat, barley also can have several awn (beard) configurations from awnless to fully awned. Other means of classification involve hull (hulled or hulless), purpose (feed or malting), height, and seed color.

      Buckaroo barley is a 6 row awnleaded barley (mostly beardless).
