What 𪌱 means

In the Yu Pian dictionary tradition.

The Yu Pian (玉篇), a Chinese character dictionary, began in 543; the received expanded edition containing this entry was revised in 1013. The later Lei Pian and Kangxi Dictionary, also Chinese character dictionaries, repeat the same reading and gloss.

It is filed under 麥, the dictionary heading for wheat characters. In 麥酒, 酒 marks an alcoholic drink.
