Millets are a group of highly variable small-seeded grasses, widely grown around the world as millet crops for human food and fodder. Millets are important crops in the semiarid tropics of Asia and Africa, with 97% of millet production in developing countries. The crop is favored due to its productivity and short growing season under dry, high-temperature conditions. Millets are indigenous to many parts of the world. The most widely grown millet is pearl millet, which is an important crop in India and some parts of Africa. Finger millet, proso millet and foxtail millet are also important crop species.
India is the world's largest producer of millets. By the 2000s, the annual millets production had increased drastically in India almost 3MMT per annum and per capita consumption of millets had increased by between 7-8%. As of 2005, most of the millets produced in India are being used for alternative applications such as livestock fodder and alcohol production. Indian agro commodity trading houses such as Bahuvida Limited are discussing ways to increase millets use as food to encourage more production.
