That paper only refers to use of grain as animal fodder, however.

Forget about your wheat fields Tore, prepare to ingest the godly diet of sheep like the rest of us in the real world. The Chinese are forcing you to become a west lander or at least live under the same weather conditions as us. Cretaceous - here we come.

One of those Welsh and New Zealand jokes apply to Norway as well?

New Zealand ranks up there, but the winner is....The Falklands (Las Malvinas) with the highest number of sheep per capita of any bit of land in the world.
I do NOT know if there was a connection between this and the invasion. Far be it from me to comment on Argentines.
Of course, the newest Holy Father is an Argentine....
Hmmm. Is there a conspiracy theory lurking in here somewhere? If so, how can we exploit the gullible and fund the org? As I recall, the Senior Member porn stash was looking a bit....long in the tooth. Might just have been photos of Andres in drag that were misplaced though.

As an Aussie-Kiwi with a Welsh mum and Scandinavian surname I've heard a lot of sheep jokes.

No, it says maybe and perhaps. In the conclusion they write that most likely the animals had grazed on harvested fields.
Re: Scientific Research Is Unreliable, Unreliable Scientists Report
You need to harvest fodder.

Re: Scientific Research Is Unreliable, Unreliable Scientists Report
And? What are you arguing about? That the barley was too poor for human consumption? That barley was only used for animals? Not what the paper is saying nor does it fit with what AFAIK Icelanders were using barley for.
The grain size, and the conclusions of the paper, would suggest that the Greenland barley was ripe. And that is what Sigurd was wondering about.
Re: Scientific Research Is Unreliable, Unreliable Scientists Report
The paper doesn't conclude on either of those, and that* was all I was trying to highlight.
*the uncertainty
