Pearl millet is one of the two major crops in the semiarid, impoverished, less fertile agriculture regions of Africa and southeast Asia. [43] Millets are not only adapted to poor, dry infertile soils, but they are also more reliable under these conditions than most other grain crops. [43] Millets, however, do respond to high fertility and moisture.
Kodo millet contains 66.6 g of carbohydrates and 353 kcal per 100 g of grain, comparable to other millets. It also contains 3.6 g of fat per 100 g. It provides minimal amounts of iron, at 0.5/100 mg, and minimal amounts of calcium, and 27/100 mg. [ 18 ] Kodo millets also contain high amounts of polyphenols , an antioxidant compound.

Proso millet is a relative of foxtail millet, pearl millet, maize, and sorghum within the grass subfamily Panicoideae. While all of these crops use C4 photosynthesis , the others all employ the NADP-ME as their primary carbon shuttle pathway, while the primary C4 carbon shuttle in proso millet is the NAD-ME pathway.
Pearl millet is a summer annual crop well-suited for double cropping and rotations. The grain and forage are valuable as food and feed resources in Africa, Russia, India and China. Today, pearl millet is grown on over 260,000 square kilometres (100,000 sq mi) of land worldwide. It accounts for about 50% of the total world production of millets. [7]
At the Indus Valley civilisation sites of Harappa and Farmana, the millet assemblage was dominated by little millet. [8] Over 10,000 grains of little millet were recovered at Harappa. [ 8 ] At Harappa, little millet cultivation peaked at around 2600 BC, accounting for around 5% of the total cereal assemblage.
Add the cooked millet, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine thoroughly and heat through. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool for five to 10 minutes until it’s safe to handle.
