Malt Culm Pellets are a co-product from the malting industry. After screening, larger grains of malting barley are encouraged to sprout in order to convert the starch in the grain into sugars. The process is stopped and the sprouts or rootlets (malt culms) removed, dried and pelleted.
Malt Culm Pellets are a FEMAS assured (or a recognised equivalent) product. Malt Culm Pellets (Malt rootlets) are listed under number 1.1.19 in the EU Catalogue of Feed Materials.
