So I thought I researched enough but guess not. *hides*
I went to a feed store an hour away and picked up a 50 lb bag of barley to grow fodder. Once I came home I realized I didn't ask if it was pesticide free. So I called and the store owner asked me
"Did you buy planting barley or feeder barley?" I told him I had no clue so I said the price and he said its feeder barley and doesn't know if it will sprout or not for fodder. Does anyone have a clue here? Lol I thought barley was just...barley.
He also said if it doesn't sprout I can just toss it to the chickens and they'll eat it anyway.
