Dear Jaspreet,

 

I think that you may find some nutrient data on these in the feed databases. Maybe another branch of USDA (animal nutrition) could tell you more.

 

I would guess that you have already tried by now:

A Google search on “barley grass nutrient content” reveals quite a range of sites, mostly about all the things that barley grass is good for (or against), but there are a few data in between.

Google Scholar gives quite a few journal papers that seem usable.

 

I have stumbled over this NZ database that has a few data data http://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/agriculture/livestock/nutrition/values/nutritive-value

 

It is not spot on, but the following article has http://future.aae.wisc.edu/lgm-dairy/nutrient_composition_of_feeds.pdf has some other interesting data.

 

All the best,

Anders

Hello all:

 We have received inquiry on the nutrient content of wheat grass and barley grass.   Does anyone have any information on the nutrient content of these items?

Thanks
