You kind of missed on the solution, I'm a grower of cereals in Canada. Grower's chase yields (which usually mean higher $$$) it's how we stay in business. If you want to have different features in barley then you have to PAY A PREMIUM for them! Otherwise we will always chase the max yielding varieties.
