Is cereal rye and winter rye the same?
Yes, cereal rye and winter rye refer to the same plant, rye. The distinction lies in their planting season. Winter rye is sown in autumn to overwinter and harvested the following year, which makes it tolerant to cold temperatures. On the other hand, cereal rye can be a general term for any rye grown for grain, including winter rye and other varieties planted in different seasons.
