oat kernel
Oat is a kind of annual herb which has developed root system. The skin of oat is hard to fall off so it can also be called hulled oat. Oat kernel is very popular with its benefits. It is a common food with less sugar, high nutrient content and high energy.
Oat is the worldwide cultivated plant which has a wide distribution in five continents and forty four countries. The temperate area in the North Hemisphere has the most concentrated producing area of oat. The region in the North Hemisphere from 41° to 43° northern latitude is the worldwide recognized golden growth area of oat. This region has a altitude of over 1000 meters and has a annual average temperature at 2.5℃. In this region, the average sunlight can continuous for almost sixteen hours and due to these advanced natural condition this place become the best growth area of oat.
The first important growth condition of oat is temperature. The oat can well grow in the cool area but it cannot bear the cold weather. Northern area of temperate area is the best region to plant oat. The seed of oat can sprout under the temperature condition with 2-4℃ and the seedling of oat can grow in the low temperature condition with -4℃. Among all the triticeae crops, oat can be regarded as a kind of frigostabile crops. And oat kernel is considered as very nutrient food.
The second growth condition of oat is moisture. Generally, oat is grown in the high and cold desert region. But during the sprouting of its seed, it needs the moisture as the same content as the 65 percent of itself. The transpiration coefficient is higher than barley and wheat and it will consume more moisture. If there is lack of moisture in the growing period, the grain of oat will not be enriched and the output will be reduced. So the rhizome of oat normally lengthens out to one meter in order to absorb more moisture.
Another growth condition of oat is soil. It can get the well harvest in different kinds of soil under the advanced cultivation conditions. However, the moist soil which in rich of humus is the best soil for oat. Oat has a strong adaptive capacity to acid soil than other triticeae crops. On today’s market, it is easy to find nutrient oat kernel.
