Millet |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| Millet, which includes several species in the grass family, is an important food staple throughout large parts of Asia and western Africa. Containing more protein than rice, it can grow in less fertile soils than many other types of grain and has a comparatively short growing season of 60 to 80 days. | ||||||
