From our crop reference

Barley is a cereal crop, grown in the rabi season. Sow it in Nov–Dec and expect to harvest in 110–130 days. It wants a pH of 6.5–8.0 (on the alkaline side) and 12–25°C. Plant at 22 cm rows, allowing 75–100 kg of seed per hectare. A good crop returns around 3–4 t. Watch for aphid, yellow rust.
