Correct Answer:
Rye has these characteristics
Long drooping straw that is very slippery
Its main use today is as a cover crop
If dairy cattle eat it, it imparts an off
flavor to the milk thus lowering quality
Bread that is made with high percentages of
rye will have a very strong, acid flavor and is not very
popular in the United States
Very hardy and can be grown further north
than any of the other cereal crops
