Sir,
Promoting millet cultivation in J&K is essential for sustainable agriculture and food security. Millets are climate-resilient, nutritious, and can thrive on marginal lands with minimal inputs.
Reviving millet farming will benefit small and marginal farmers, enhance livelihoods, and contribute to environmental sustainability.
The J&K Government should provide quality seeds, technical support, and establish market linkages for millet products.
Awareness and training programs are crucial for farmers to adopt modern practices. With the declaration of 2023 as the International Year of Millets, this is a prime opportunity to boost millet production and consumption, aligning with global efforts to promote this superfood.
