Millets

Millets are a group of small, hardy grains that belong to the grass family. They include varieties such as pearl millet, finger millet, and foxtail millet. Known for their nutritional benefits, millets are rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, making them a healthy alternative to conventional grains like wheat and rice. They are drought-resistant, making them suitable for cultivation in challenging climates, and are often used in traditional dishes across many cultures. Millets are increasingly gaining attention for their potential to contribute to sustainable agriculture and food security.
