It is with great pleasure and fervor that we present to you this book, "Millets: A Sustainable Approach to Nutritional Security." As we navigate the complexities of the modern world, our understanding of sustainable practices becomes central, not just for ecological harmony but also for our national security. The idea behind this book comes from a profound belief in the transformative potential of millets. These small-seeded grasses, including sorghum, pearl millet, finger millet, and others, have been the unsung heroes of our agriculture for centuries. Their resilience to diverse climates, coupled with their rich nutritional content, makes them a compelling subject for exploration.
In making this book, our aim is twofold: to shed light on the frequently-disregarded significance of millets and to underscore their potential role in ensuring national security. We delve into the historical, nutritional, and agricultural aspects of millets, examining their relevance in contemporary times. The global perspective on millets as a sustainable food source aligns with the urgent need for ecological obligation and self-reliance. This endeavour would not have been possible without the collective effort of dedicated researchers, practitioners, and policymakers in the field of agriculture and food security. we extend my heartfelt gratitude to all those who have contributed to this project, directly or indirectly.
As you embark on this literary journey, we invite you to consider the broader implications of millets in shaping a sustainable and secure future for nations. May this book serve as a catalyst for discussions, actions, and policies that promote the cultivation and consumption of millets, not just as grains but as vital contributors to our nutritional well-being. Thank you for joining us on this exploration of "Millets: A Sustainable Approach to Nutritional Security."
