Barley sprout superfood for livestock

Marcel Moise grows barley sprouts as a superfood for his beef cattle year round in a greenhouse. The cattle provide the warm, carbon dioxide and methane to grow vigorous sprouts, and the sprouts are a nutrient rich (better than grain, better than hay) food for the cattle.

I posted this video for Marcel b/c I thought it interesting. Compared to other grains, barley seed is cheap and has low nutritional requirements, but Marcel's system is not organic. He does use soluble fertilizers. However, with a bit of research you could probably do this with compost teas. There is another farmer in Ontario who has purchased a feeding system the same in principle but mechanically driven - expensive but much less labour.
