Indian Council of Agricultural Research started pearl millet breeding in India in the 1940s, and X1 and X2 were the two chance hybrids released in India for commercial utilization in the fifties ( Yadav and Rai, 2013). Pearl millet improvement programs were implemented in several phases. During phase I, breeders mainly focused on the flowering habit, mode of pollination, germplasm evaluation and enhancement, genetics and cytogenetics of agronomically important traits, cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) etc. Thus, initially, efforts were put forward towards the identification and use of dwarfing genes for enhancing the yield using locally adapted materials and various Open Pollinated Varieties (OPVs) were developed. As a result of this, pearl millet hybrid research has gained importance in India and the productivity was 4.5 kg/ha/year during this phase ( Yadav et al., 2019). By the 1960s, hybrid development became the major objective of breeding for enhancing pearl millet production and productivity. Hybrid “HB-1” (Hybrid Bajra-1) was the first pearl millet hybrid released in 1965 ( Athwal, 1965) followed by a series of hybrids between 1965 and 1988 and during phase II, an annual increase of 6.6 kg/ha was achieved in productivity.

Aspen Publishers, Gaithersburg, pp 140–156 Storing:Place the homemade millet flour in an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to 3 months. Once completely dry, add the millet to a high-powered blender and blitz on high until it turns into a fine powder. The only ingredient you need to make Bajra Roti is good quality, fresh, finely ground millet flour. In India, Bajra is usually milled every couple of weeks to get fresh flour. Here in the US, I recommend using Jalpur Brand Pearl Millet flour. Tips to make perfect Bajra Roti Millet is rich in molecules, including ferulic acid and catechins. These work as antioxidants and help to protect the body from oxidative stress, which can cause damage to the cells. 11 Millet is gluten-free

We shifted to gluten-free grains because we realized gluten was causing the bulk of our digestion problems. We knew of rice and quinoa as gluten-free wheat alternatives. Rice is fine but quinoa is expensive in India. Using it every day was not working out. Also, I like to use a variety of grains for everyday meals. Millets are perfect! Right around our little town of Udaipur, there are so many different types of millets crops. We easily connected with the farmers and now I buy trusted organic millets right from the source. Millets are still not very common in Indian households but awareness about health benefits of millets is slowly increasing. Variation: If you find making these flatbreads too cumbersome, add some whole wheat flour (atta). Including whole wheat flour in the dough will make it easier for you to roll the roti.

When our intestines produce too much bile, it may worsen the condition of gallstones. The insoluble fibre found in pearl millet might help reduce the production of excess bile in our digestive system. It is high in fibre, which may also help reduce the risk of developing gallstones.
