Abstract


Millets are cultivated in resource poor areas of our nation by small and marginal farmers. Being climate resilient, improving their production and productivity through the use of improved high-yielding varieties is the source to address many of the malnourishment issues faced by our women, children, and low-income groups. The establishment of Millets Park, the creation of a new millet movement empowering primitive, vulnerable tribal groups, and ensuring gender diversity are challenges and opportunities to be explored towards achieving sustainable farming and inclusive development.
