Barley is grown in Iceland with good results. Progress has been made in the cultivation and the harvest each year is about 9 to 16 thousand tons.

The barley crop is primarily used as fodder. Barley is the type of grain that is best suited for cultivation in northern areas. By cultivating barley in Iceland, it is possible to save money on imports and reduce long-distance transport.
