The available varieties for application are hulled barley (Keunalbori No.1), rice barley (Jaeanchalssal), green barley (Yeongyang), and rye (Gogu).

When applying, barley seeds can be selected as either treated or untreated, while rye seeds can only be applied for as untreated due to the absence of registered pesticides following the implementation of PLS (Pesticide Maximum Residue Limits) regulations.

An official from the Andong Agricultural Technology Center stated, "Certified seeds have the advantage of being produced by the National Seed Management Office with high purity and well-preserved varietal characteristics, preventing the occurrence of off-type plants. For uniform growth and stable cultivation, we recommend using certified seeds rather than self-harvested seeds."
