Effect of Nitrogen Treatment on the Physico‐Chemical and Functional Properties Intermediate Wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium) Grown in Different Locations

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Intermediate wheatgrass (IWG), a new perennial crop, is being explored for food applications; however, nitrogen application effects on its properties have not been investigated. This study evaluated the effects of applying 90 kg ha−1 of nitrogen in spring or fall seasons on the properties of IWG grown in Minnesota and
