Funding for this research came from the Scottish Government's Rural and Environment Science and Analytical Services Division (RESAS) through their support for this Strategic Partnership project. We are also grateful to Ingvar Andersson at Lantmännen SW Seed AB for supplying seed of the Scandinavian varieties for the trials each year and to the seed merchant William Shearer (Kirkwall) for importing it. We are indebted to Grietje Holtrop from Biomathematics and Statistics Scotland for her help with statistical analysis. Andy Beer (The Royal Zoological Society, Edinburgh) performed all NIRS analysis and Gill Campbell (Rowett Institute of Nutrition and Health) performed the mineral content analysis. The Centre for Sustainable Cropping platform is supported through Scottish Government Underpinning Capacity funding. The Agronomy Institute acknowledges support from the Northern Periphery and Arctic Programme's Northern Cereals project in preparing this publication.
