CBH will provide a tolerance to the current 1% blue kernel receival standard for any barley variety when testing occurs at the sample shed. Flexibility will also be provided on accepting loads above the prescribed 1% limit, dependent on the overall quality profile of the stack. This flexibility will also depend on seasonal and regional conditions and the impact these have on the expression of blue colouring. This tolerance will continue to be in place until further notice.
