Abstract
A simple water treatment of pearled barley consisting of wetting the ground grain with an equal weight of water and allowing it to stand for approximately 8 hours before drying at 70[degree] C significantly improved its nutritional value for chicks. Treated barley was equivalent to corn in supporting chick growth and significantly better than corn in terms of feed utilization.Keywords
