Attention was immediately turned to making greater use of barley as a livestock feed within Canada with the closure of the market for its sale to Denmark on the declaration of the Second World War. To-day from a livestock feeding standpoint barley is to the Canadian farmer what corn is to his counterpart in the United States. The importance of barley as a livestock feed was recognized by the National Barley Feed Committee when it decided in 1936 to assemble all the information then available on the botanical, chemical and nutritive qualities of this grain with a view to the preparation of tables of feed composition.
