What is the difference between wheat and barley?

Wheat can basically be named barley and wheat, of course, usually everyone has more contact with wheat should be wheat, wheat can be ground into flour, so it is one of the basic foods commonly used by people in the north. But of course, barley isn't vegetarian either. Barley, as a kind of forage grass commonly used in animal husbandry, is also a very important thing, so let's take a look at the difference between barley and wheat.

First of all, the biggest difference between barley and wheat is the taste, to be honest, the taste of barley seeds is not better than wheat at all, wheat can be directly ground into flour, but barley cannot meet this. The flour made from barley is relatively coarse, and it is not suitable for human use at all, so they used to be eaten when everyone was very poor, and now it is basically wheat-based.

Barley has a long edge and small seeds, while wheat has the opposite effect.

Barley beer tastes good, pure and easy to store.

Wheat beer, white and delicate foam, long-lasting hanging cup, strong mellowness, and special fruit ester flavor, good taste. Beer made from barley, the beer has higher nutritional value and therapeutic effect, which contains a variety of essential amino acids, lysine and various trace elements. It can improve human immunity and prevent various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Distinguish from wheat mang, barley mango is very long, and the length of wheat ears is about the same, wheat mango is relatively short, barley husk is difficult to peel off, wheat husk has fallen off when threshing, barley is generally used as a raw material for beer, or as feed, wheat is mainly processed into flour. Barley is harvested earlier than wheat. The main thing is that the varieties are different and the tastes are different.

Barley is generally used to make wine, and wheat is used to grind flour.

I've only heard of wheat, I've never heard of wheat.

1.There is a certain difference between barley and wheat, their appearance is different, so the nutritional content is also different, barley is mainly used for feed, making beer, and wheat can be processed into flour.

2.Moreover, barley is rich in vitamin E, which has the effect of anti-aging, protecting ** tissues and promoting blood circulation in the body. The main components of wheat are starch, protein, and amino acids, which can effectively supplement the nutrients needed by the body.

Barley is rich in minerals and dietary fiber, especially the content of dietary fiber is better than that of wheat. After dietary fiber enters the body, it can absorb water and swell, soften stool, and promote intestinal peristalsis, so barley is better than wheat in promoting defecation and preventing constipation. At the same time, barley is rich in minerals that are relatively richer than wheat, and the effect of barley is slightly better than that of wheat in regulating the body's metabolic ability

1. The stalks are different. The stalk of wheat is erect, each root has a length of 6 to 7 nodes, the height of the whole child is about 60 to 100 cm, the diameter is 5 to 7 mm, and the sheath of the wheat leaf loosely wraps the stem, the whole leaf tongue is relatively smooth, membranous, about 1 mm in length, and the leaf is long lanceolate; The stalk of barley is thicker than that of wheat, with a smooth and hairless surface, about 50 to 100 cm in height, lanceolate leaf lugs on both sides, and the leaves are about 9 to 20 cm long and 7 to 20 mm wide, which is flattened.

2. The fruits are different. Wheat is more common in the south, the fruit is yellow-brown, the peel is wrapped, it is flat round or oval, the two ends of the fruit are slightly pointed or obtuse, which contains starch grains, if the fruit is crushed, you will find that the powder is white, with small pieces of yellow-brown peel; The barley fruit is fuller and oval-shaped, but the barley fruit is wrapped in a husk and is not as easily crushed as wheat. Both barley and wheat are now hulled with the help of machines.

3. Different uses. Barley is generally used as an ingredient in beer and processed with other ingredients. Wheat is generally processed into flour, and then fermented to make staple foods such as steamed bread and noodles.

In fact, there is not much difference in the nutritional value of barley and wheat, both of which contain high protein and a small amount of fat.

Both barley and wheat are rich in nutrients. If you want to try barley, you can use barley with millet to make porridge together, barley porridge is very delicious. We eat a lot of wheat every day, such as flour, steamed buns, and noodles, which are all processed with wheat as the main raw material.

The emergence of barley and wheat solved the problem of satiety for the world's population and was a great progress in the history of world civilization.

The seeds of wheat are coarser, while the seeds of barley are leaner.

Barley cultivation techniques.

Selected varieties: select barley varieties suitable for wheat straw or dual-use, such as: Minmai No. 2, Fudamai No. 1, Fudamai No. 2.

Sow and select seeds with full color and good color, remove diseased grains, deflated grains, and rotten grains, and choose sunny days to dry seeds for 1 to 2 days. The seeds used for sowing are 99% pure, 99% clear, 85% germination, and moisture.

Soil selection: Choose flat terrain, deep and fertile tillage layer, active soil layer of more than 25 cm, and good land structure, no tillage obstacle factors. The plots selected for planting do not have excessive heavy metals.

Timely sowing: In the climatic conditions of Fujian Province, when the soil temperature is between 10 and 20, it is suitable for sowing. If the soil moisture is low, it must be watered once after sowing.

Reasonable dense planting: the sowing amount is generally 135 to 180 kilograms, and the basic seedling control is about 2.25 million hectares, which is conducive to the early soil covering of wheat seedlings and optimizing the planting space of wheat seedlings. This helps to inhibit the growth of weeds and at the same time improve the yield and quality of wheat grass.

The actual sowing amount should also be adjusted according to the sowing method, fertilization method, soil fertility conditions and other factors.

Reasonable fertilization: In the field with medium fertility, the recommended fertilizer amount is 285 kg of pure nitrogen fertilizer, 120 kg of phosphorus pentoxide, and 285 kg of potassium oxide. Considering the quality and regeneration capacity of wheat seedlings, more organic fertilizer must be applied.

For the soil with poor fertilizer retention, it is necessary to top dressing many times, generally after cutting wheat seedlings, that is, top dressing is required for every 1 time to meet the vegetative growth of wheat seedlings.

Timely cutting of seedlings: Generally, it is better to cut seedlings in the peak stage of barley tillering, and the barley seedlings at this stage have less nutritional decline compared with seedlings, and at the same time have higher biological yield, and the regeneration ability of wheat piles is strong. Usually, as long as it is harvested again in about 20 days under suitable environmental conditions, barley seedlings can be harvested three times during production.

Timely weeding: In order to ensure the food safety of wheat grass, herbicides are generally not recommended. Under normal environmental conditions, wheat grass has a stronger growth potential than weeds, and individual fast-growing weeds can be manually removed.

Field management: wheat seedlings production requires a large amount of water, to keep the field in a moist state as much as possible, especially after cutting seedlings, to keep the soil moist, if the soil is relatively dry at this time must be watered, to meet the demand for water for the growth of wheat seedlings again.
