International Year of Millets

Food and Agriculture Organization and United Nations has recognised 2023 as International Year of Millets or IYM2023 for awareness about health and nutritional benefits of millets.[1][2] The Indian Government proposed to celebrate 2023 as International Year of Millets.[3]

Because millets use less water to produce and grow in less time, they can be alternatives to imported cereals. Millets also have high nutritional values.[4]
