Our Healthy Minor Cereals research has responded to consumers’ increasing demands for healthy, nutritious, and innovative food produced sustainably. Our knowledge on the genetic diversity and nutritional density of spelt, rye, oats, emmer and einkorn has been very rewarding. The varieties of rye from Poland, Estonia, Austria and Germany have performed well in the North East. We also know that plant breeders are crossing spelt with wheat varieties to make the crop more beneficial to farmers and producers but reluctant to share this with bakers and consumers. Our new True Spelt initiative is a purity guarantee commitment to consumers.
