Abstract:

Millets and pulses are the most important dryland crops grown in both Kharif and Rabi seasons in the semi-arid regions of the country for food, feed and animal fodder. These crops also show considerable resilience to changing climate (drought, heat and nutrient stresses). For diversification of Pearl millet-Chickpea rotation, adoption of small millets (finger millet, foxtail millet, proso millet, little millet, brown top millet, barnyard millet, and kodo millet) in addition to pearl millet may be viable option.A field experiment was carried out at CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar, Ha

Grain yield was recorded over 2 years.Dry-matter accumulation was initially most rapid in sorghum and Japanese barnyard millet. Sorghum, pearl millet and finger millet produced the most dry matter; these were the latest to reach head emergence. The early-maturing proso millet and foxtail millet pr

Abstract:

Millet is a healthy grain that is high in vitamins, minerals, and fibre. It is also gluten-free and has a low glycemic index, making it a suitable diet for persons with gluten intolerance or diabetes. Millet is an important crop for small farmers, in addition to its nutritional importance. Unlike rice or wheat, millet is drought-resistant and requires relatively little water to thrive. This makes it an attractive crop for farmers in dry locations where water scarcity is a big concern. Furthermore, millet has a short growth season and is easy to cultivate, making it an appealing alternative for

The most extensively grown millets worldwide, notably in India, are pearl millet, finger millet, foxtail millet, Indian barnyard millet, kodo millet, little millet, and proso millet. Millets are explicated under Dhanya Varga in Ayurveda and are referred to by the names Trina Dhanya, Kudhanya, and Kshudra Dhanya across various Samhita. Moreover, indigenous people have long used millets for ethnomedical purposes and prevention of hunger

Fodder scarcity is a main problem in boosting of livestock sector. Hypothesis was made in order to increase fodder yield per unit of land by intercropping of cowpeas, pearl millet and maize. Constraints and yield potentials of these three crops are essential before widespread cultivation at District Charsadda. Field experiment was conducted at Agriculture Research Farm (ARF), Bacha Khan University, Charsadda. Cowpeas, pearl Millet and Maize were intercropped in simultaneous and alternate row allocations i.e. sole, 1:1:1 and 2:2:2 ratios in the field conditions. The trial was analyzed with RCB

Abstract:

Present-day agriculture is under tremendous pressure due to various factors such as climate change, degradation of soil and water quality, and yield plateauing of major food crops. Under these scenarios, there is an urgent need to choose a climate-resilient and ecologically hardy crop which can perform under adverse conditions with low input requirements. In this regard, millets can be suitable crops for agricultural sustainability. Among various millets, finger millet (Eleusine coracana L. Gaertn) is cultivated mainly in India and Africa.

Effects of proso millet interference with irrigated dry beans were evaluated in Nebraska over a 2-yr period. Dry bean yield reduction ranged from 12 to 31% from a wild proso millet density of 10 plants m-2. As density increased, dry bean yield reduction could be predicted with a rectangular hyperbola regression model. Ten wild proso millet plants m-2growing with dry beans produced 14 780 to 21 420 seed m-2. Dry bean yields were reduced 41 and 11% in 1990 and 1991, respectively, when wild proso millet removal was delayed 6 wk after dry bean planting. Four weeks of weed-free maintenance were suf

SummaryA series of trials investigated the response of a range of groundnut genotypes to varied levels of competition from millet in intercrop situations in both the Sahelian and Sudanian agro-climatic zones. No genotype interactions were observed in response to different millet population levels. Introducing millet into groundnut cultivation provided considerable benefits to the farmer, particularly at the less dense millet populations, but the introduction of groundnut into millet cropping consistently reduced the yield of millet, with little gain in groundnut yields.
