Cultivated Rye
Cultivated rye releases pollen, a well-known trigger of seasonal allergies. Its pollen season can coincide with the grass pollen season, exacerbating symptoms for those allergic to grass pollen. When rye fields are in flower, nearby communities may notice an increase in hay fever symptoms.
