Arina,
There is a farmer near Amarillo who raises free
range chickens,
and I gave him some purple wheat, which supposedly has a better
amino acid balance, with higher arginine and lysine, who broadcast the
seed.
I m not sure how it turned out, tho.
Hi Mike,
Now I remember our conversation about nutritional contents of different
greens and grains! Tell me more about purple wheat - I do no till mostly,
so would it germinate from broadcasted seed? would it reseed? Any details
are welcome.
