MILLETS
Millet is a small, round grain that is commonly used in birdseed, but it also has a number of uses as a food for humans. In many parts of the world, millet is a staple food, either eaten as a grain or ground into flour and used to make bread, porridge, and other dishes. It is a good source of nutrients, including protein, fiber, and several minerals. Millet is also relatively easy to grow and is resistant to drought, which makes it a valuable crop in dry regions. Some people also use millet as a gluten-free alternative to wheat and other grains.
