MILLETS- HEALTH BENEFITS, CHALLENGES AND INITIATIVES REQUIRED FOR PROMOTION
Millets are a group of highly variable small-seeded grasses, widely grown around the world as cereal crops or grains for human food and as fodder providing food security to millions of households and contributing to the economic efficiency of farming. Millets are considered to be the next super food or nutri-cereals of the world because of their high nutritional content. They are gluten free, non- allergenic and good sources of proteins, carbohydrates, dietary fibre and essential amino acids. Traditionally, India has had a high rate of millet consumption and cultivation. Resilient to climate change, Millets are hardy crops that have a low carbon and water footprint. They can grow on poor soils with little or no external inputs and can withstand high temperatures, making them ideal for the diverse physiographic divisions of India.
