The new barley variety HumaI 16 is spring-type, a two-row long-awned hulled barley, with green seedlings, medium-to-high tillering ability, 800,000 to 1,000,000 plants per mu, and a spike-bearing rate of 33%. 45%. Effective spikes 390,000 to 400,000. Grains per spike about 26. Seed-setting rate above 97.0%, thousand-grain weight about 42.0 g, plant height 8595 cm. This variety matures early, maturing around May 12 of the following year, with good maturity appearance; lodging resistance; strong resistance to adverse climatic factors such as late spring cold and sharp high-low temperature changes; highly resistant to yellow mosaic disease; excellent malt quality. In 1998, malt quality analysis conducted by the China National Research Institute of Food and Fermentation Industries reached the national premium-grade brewing barley standard; this variety has high and stable yield, generally about 350 kg per mu, and over 450 kg in high-yield fields; suitable for promotion in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River region.
