By Heather Chalmers [email protected] Growing of alternative grains and pulses would be more commercially viable if con- sumers supported New Zealand-grown over cheaper imported product, says Methven quinoa grower Andrew Currie. A new report lists quinoa, along with soy, hemp, chickpeas, oats and buck- wheat, as six “star” crops identified as having the most potential for New Zea- land farmers. Currie said imported product was cheaper, “and that is the case with many of these things”. It was also difficult to accurately know the size of markets. An ancient South American grain, quinoa (pronounced keen-wah) has been grown and marketed by Currie for several years. Known as a super-food, its popularity was increasing because of its nutrition-dense, gluten-free seed, which contained high levels of protein, vitamins, minerals and fibre. Currie said his quinoa was not heat treated, unlike imported product. “I would be one of the first to encour- age the Ministry for Primary Industries to be much harder on letting in any im- ported seeds that we know we can grow Quinoa, grown by Methven arable farmer Andrew Currie, is one of six grain and pulse crops identified as having the most ourselves.
