Barley (Hordeum vulgare L. subsp. vulgare), the second most widely grown cereal in Turkey, is produced mainly for animal feed. Breweries have had to use feed and/or dual-purpose varieties until the late 1980s. Bahri Dagdas International Winter Cereals Research Center started a breeding program specifically for malting barley. The program started with 650 introductions at the research farm in Konya province, which represents Central Anatolia, the largest barley-growing region in Turkey. Observations and tests made in the field, and tests and analyses carried out in the laboratories in different years resulted in the release of a new variety, Karatay 94, suitable for good-quality malt production
