Micronized rolled barley is a natural whole grain feed that is micronized and rolled to increase digestibility. Barley is energy dense making it an ideal feed stuff for weight gain. It is inherently loaded through the rolling process with gelatinised starch which has significantly greater susceptibility to amylase emzyme degradation than raw starch; gelatinised starch disappears at an increased rate from the fishes gut - both as bypass carbohydrate and due to microbial utilisation; Ileum digestibility is greater than raw starch, across species, and less starch is available for hind gut fermentation. Meaning it passes through the gut quicker and is utilised quicker by the fish. Great when combined with flaked naked oats to be fed to the lake or the smaller species on a fish farm throughout the year.
