Millets are cereals from the Poaceae grass family and are considered one of the oldest cultivated crops. Generally, pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) and finger millet (Eleusine coracana) are known as the two major millets used for food and feed. They are small-seeded grasses belonging to the botanical family Poaceae. They constitute an important source of food and fodder for millions of resource-poor farmers and play a vital role in ecological and economic security of India. These millets are also known as "coarse cereals" or "cereals of the poor". The plant is leafy with an upright growth habit, producing long, slender deep purple foliage, stems, and flower plumes. Millet grows best in hot climates, but not necessarily humid climates, and requires full sun and moist, neutral soil.
