The United Nations General Assembly declared 2023 the International Year of Millets.

Millets’ diversity and ability to thrive on drylands with minimal inputs make them a valuable contribution to food security, healthy diets and nutrition in many countries.  Each millet species provides different essential nutrients. They are an ideal solution for countries to improve food security and nutrition, and  contribute to transforming food systems.  We working with Kent farmer Andrew Lingham on production of red millet in the UK to produce our Red Millet Flour.

This publication surveys the status of millets worldwide to inspire policymakers, farmers, civil society, opinion leaders, research and development agents, and the general public to reconsider the role of millets in diversified and healthy diets.
