Oowa is a 6-rowed awned winter barley that was originally collected at 8005 ft (2440 m) in Rafla Nepal in 1948 by Walter N. Koelz of the USDA. Productive, this hull-less barley is a reliable addition for short-season growers seeking to enhance self-reliance. Kernels have a protein content of 12% and a beta glucan content of 6.75% (beta glucan has positive effects on heart health and cholesterol levels, in addition to boosting immunity and stabilizing blood sugar levels.)

Limited quantity - only 1 pack per person. I will only ship one pack and will refund the additional packs. Why the limit? To allow as many growers as possible to enjoy this cultivar.
