Review
I am happy to review this article.
 * Many thanks. I hope you'll find it's carefully-constructed. I'm used to working through any issues with reviewers. Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:27, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Looking forward to learning everything about Barley! I am stepping back from duties in another section of the project so I should be able to complete this in a timely manner. Bruxton (talk) 17:12, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Lead

 * All of the elements of the lead are summary/introduction. I checked and all of the lead facts are repeated with citations in the body.

Images

 * All 24 images appear to be properly licensed and free. I went through all of the image licenses and determined that that they are free to use. The airplane image is an outlier because it says it was captured in 1979 and the user does not have more than a handful of edits. But we can assumed good faith. The images also appear to be distributed in the correct sections.

Prose

 * In the etymology section there is an orphan sentence. Is there a way to fold it into the paragraph above? Bruxton (talk) 18:37, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Closed up.
 * Spelling - are we using British English? Because of spelling like "organised" and "colour" and "fibre "
 * Yes.
 * Thanks for adding the template atop of the article, that was my nest suggestion. Bruxton (talk) 20:03, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Should this be plural civilizations(s)? Bronze Age Harappan civilization 5,700–3,300 years ago.
 * Harappan is one thing.
 * Cultivation section: Should this be hyphenated? "drought tolerant"
 * Fixed.
 * Cultivation section: Might be an error It to be monitored for pests and diseases
 * Fixed.
 * Uses section: Should this be hyphenated? "18th century"
 * Fixed.

Stable

 * No instability on the Barley article
