Introduction
The previous four decades of Indian agriculture went through the phases of green revolution, self sufficiency and favorable government policies to promote fine cereals. This has resulted in gradual reduction in the consumption of millets (sorghum, pearl millet, finger millet, foxtail millet, kodo millet, proso millet and barnyard millet) as staple foods in arid and semi-arid regions. In the process, not only the food habits changed but health problems have cropped up in the fast paced urban lives and rural households. Now, with increased awareness on health and nutrition, millets are resurfacing on the plates of the urban as well as rural people to ward off life style diseases such as diabetes and obesity. With unique advantages in their nutritional profile coupled with lower costs of production, millets have become raw materials for innovation in food processing, nutritious food formulations and health planning.
Millets are nutritionally superior to the commonly consumed cereals in micronutrient and fibre content. Millet grains are relatively rich in proteins and are superior in total minerals and vitamins. Food-based nutrition is the ideal way to fight malnutrition and lifestyle-associated health disorders.With this background, the main focus of this Global consultation is on promotion of millets for enhancing health and nutritional security and thereby to enhance health of people. It has become a universal necessity to seek alternative foods that are nutritionally rich and also possess health benefits. Time has now come for projecting our traditional wealth in millets which are grown in dryland regions of our country. These crops are resilient to climate change and have many virtues which need to be properly explored.

About the ConferenceThe Directorate of Sorghum Research (DSR) an arm of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) is celebrating Golden Jubilee year of Sorghum research during the year 2013. As a part of these celebrations, DSR is organizing a three-day Global Consultation on “Millets Promotion for Health and Nutritional Security” during December 2013 at Hyderabad, India.

Policies - PDS and main streaming millets in public funded welfare programmes • Role of private sector in increased consumption of millets
Target ParticipantsScientists, Engineers, Industry people, Professionals, Nutritionists, Entrepreneurs, Policy makers, other stakeholders related to Millets and Students.
