LCS Odyssey | Limagrain Cereal Seeds

#1 choice

for cereal cyst nematode resistance

Non-producer

of GN (glycosidic nitrile)

Highest yielding

variety in 2016 Montana State University trials

An adventure in craft barley

Newly AMBA approved, LCS Odyssey had grown a reputation for having an usuasually broad adaptation. In addition to yield and malt charagcterestic both the farmer and the brewer will enjoy, LCS Odyssey is a must have variety for distillers, as it is the only malting barley variety available in the US today rated as Non-GN (zero glycosidic nitrile content).
