Barley is a grain harvested from a barley plant grown from four barley seeds in a hops patch, requiring level 3 Farming. Up to seven barley can be harvested from a barley plant.

Barley is required for crafting barley malts, which is used in brewing. Barley is also the preferred bait for deadfalling Prickly Kebbits.

Farming

Barley can be harvested from barley plants grown within a hops patch. A fully grown barley plant can be harvested for up to seven barley. Each barley, when picked, gives 9.5 Farming experience. Barley plants take forty minutes (four growth cycles of ten minutes each) to grow.
