Against the Grain Farms (AGF) located in Mountain, ON is a producer of non-GMO ancient cereal grains that have been hand selected from around the world, due to their nutritional properties, and planted in Ontario in order to supply locally grown heritage grains to Canadian health food and local markets. Barley is one of their most popular type of grains and is produced in many varieties that are high in fiber, anthocyanin, and proteins. With the successful establishment of these grains at their farm in Ontario, AGF is planning to launch a new product line to the Canadian health food market, barley-based beverages. The proposed research will be conducted under four phases, including: testing different barley varieties to evaluate product quality for the proposed formulations; development of three different flavour profiles; adjustment to formulations and processing conditions for optimal flavour, aroma, texture, and appearance; determining packaging options, and storage conditions; and shelf-life study for food safety and sensory quality. The research team at Conestoga College's Institute of Food Processing Technology (IFPT) will conduct experiments, analyze and interpret the data and prepare the final report including formulations, shelf life data, and recommendations for improvements of the product to Against the Grain Farms.

Against the Grain Farms （AGF）位于安大略省的芒特，是一家非转基因古老谷物生产商，由于其营养特性，这些谷物是从世界各地手工挑选的，并在安大略省种植，以便为加拿大健康食品和当地市场提供当地种植的传统谷物。大麦是他们最受欢迎的谷物之一，品种繁多，富含纤维、花青素和蛋白质。随着这些谷物在安大略省农场的成功建立，AGF正计划向加拿大健康食品市场推出一条新的产品线，大麦饮料。拟议的研究将分四个阶段进行，包括：测试不同的大麦品种，以评估拟议配方的产品质量；三种不同风味的发展；调整配方和加工条件以获得最佳风味、香气、质地和外观；确定包装方案和储存条件；以及食品安全和感官质量的保质期研究。康内斯托加学院食品加工技术研究所（IFPT）的研究小组将进行实验，分析和解释数据，并准备最终报告，包括配方，保质期数据以及对“反对粮食农场”产品的改进建议。
