Book (stand-alone)Unleashing the potential of millets
International Year of Millets 2023. Background paper
2023The United Nations General Assembly declared 2023 the International Year of Millets (IYM 2023). 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. IYM2023 provides an opportunity to raise awareness of and direct policy attention to millets' nutritional and health benefits and their suitability for cultivation under adverse and changing climatic conditions. The sustainable production of millets provides opportunities for stable market linkages and decent jobs on- and off-farm-. Millets being small-grained cereals offer significant prospects for innovation in harvesting, processing and food technologies to create products attractive to consumers. This paper includes a synopsis of the current status of millets worldwide and was created 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. -
