‘Harriman’ (Reg. No. CV‐358, PI 676261) is a hulled, low‐phytate barley ( Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivar, the second to be developed and released by the USDA‐ARS. Compared to the previously released hulled, low‐phytate cultivar, ‘Herald’, Harriman has higher grain yield, higher test weight, higher inorganic phosphorus (P i ), and lower phytate phosphorus (P). This cultivar can contribute to animal production and sustainable agriculture by reducing or eliminating the need for P or phytase supplementation and by reducing the amount of P released into the environment from animal production facilities.
