A friend of mine - his son actually - runs a business where he malts barley and rye for craft breweries. He contracts with folks from 4 states; Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois and Ohio. This is to reduce the chance of a weather issue hitting his entire crop in the same year. The father farms 1500 acres and supports the business so he has plenty of ground to just grow it himself if he wanted to.
Smart guy - lived in Canada for several months to apprentice under someone and learn malting before starting his business.
