IntroductionCereals are staple foods, and are important sources of nutrients in both developed and developing countriesWheat, rice, and corn are the major important grains in the human diet. The minor grains include oats, barley, rye, triticale, sorghum and milletsCereals grains are rich sources of fibre, vitamins, minerals, and photochemicals
• After harvest, correct storage of the grain is important to prevent mould spoilage, pest infestation and grain germination
• Dehusking (Dehulling) and Milling are the main processing techniques associated with cereals

Maize• It is a cheap form of starch and is
a major energy source for animal feed
• Commercial important varieties of maize are
1.dent maize (identified by the dent in the crown of the kernel);
2.flint maize (hard, round kernels);3.sweet corn (a dent-type maize);4.popcorn (flint-type maize which
expands when heated).
Sorghum
•It is an important food crop in sub-Saharan Africa on account of its drought tolerance
•Low glycemic index and increase satiety
•Gluten Free foods
Foxtail Millet
• Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) is one of the important food crops in parts of the Indian subcontinent, African countries and China. Telugu : Korra
• Foxtail millet ranks second in the total world production of millets.
• Foxtail Millet contains 9–14% protein, 70–80% carbohydrates and is a rich source of dietary fiber.
• It contains maximum amount of chromium among all the millets with an account of 0.030mg per 100g.
• Foxtail Millet is a starchy food with a 25:75 amylose to amylopectin ratio. Lipids are 3-6%having about 50% of the lipids in the form of polyunsaturated fatty acids
Pearl Millet
• India is the largest` producer of pearl millet in Asia, both in terms of area about 9 million ha and production 8.3 million tons. Telugu : Sajja
• A pearl millet grain comprises about 8% pericarp, 17% germ and 75% endosperm .
• Pearl Millet Protein 7.3, Fiber 3.6,Minerals 2.7, Iron 3.9, Calcium 344 .
• Pearl millet for increasing its acceptability as ready to serve break-fast food and improving rural economy and health of rural people .
Finger Millet
• Finger millet(Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn.) is originally native to the Ethiopian highlands and introduced into India approximately 4000 years ago. Telugu : Ragi
• The major producers are Uganda, India, Nepal, and China.
• Finger millet has high yield potential and grain stores very well.
• In Indiais cultivated on 1.8 million ha, with average yields of 1.3 t/ha. The major finger millet growing states are Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu.
Kodo Millet
• Kodo millet (Paspalum scrobiculatum) was domesticated in India almost 3000 years ago.
• Telugu : Arikelu, Arika• Kodo millets also contain high amounts of polyphenols, an
antioxidant compound• The fiber content of the whole grain is very high. It contains 11%
protein and 10% fiber.• Kodo millet is a nutritious grain and a good substitute to rice or
wheat
Little Millet
• Little millet (Panicum sumatrense) was domesticated in India.• Telugu : Samalu • Little millet is another reliable catch crop in view of its
earliness and resistance to adverse agro-climatic conditions.• The stover is a good fodder for cattle.
Proso Millet
• Proso millet (Panicum miliaceum L) was domesticated in Manchuria and introduced to Europe about 3000 years ago.
• Telugu : Variga• Proso millet is well adapted to many soil and climatic
conditions.
Barnyard Millet
• Barnyard millet (Echinochloa colona) is the fastest growing of all millets and produces a crop in six weeks.
• Telugu : Udalu, Kodisama• It is grown in India, Japan and China as a substitute for rice
when the paddy crop fails.• plant has attracted some attention as a fodder in the United
States and Japan.

Possibility of importing
• .
Over the past few years, output has remained stagnant and there is an urgent need to
promote cultivation of these crops
( annual economic survey, prepared by the finance
ministry, India)
• Dehulling technology is available for various
capacity dehulling fabrication of machine is
possible
• Whole grain flour
• Dehulled grain flour
• Coarse rawa
• Semolina
• Fermented flour and rawa
• Germinated rawa and flour
• Autoclaved rawa and flour for RS3 enhancement
• Composite flours
Value-Added Supply Chain
• Excellent food products can be and are made from millets.The value-added supply chain includes• Seed supplier (seed production) - quality and purity• Grain producer• Harvesting• Storage• Handling and transportation• Processing into products• Marketing
Milling
• The millet was decorticated in pilot-scale rice milling machinery with suitable adaptations.
• Husking was done in a centrifugal sheller. • The husked material was debranned in a horizontal emery
cone according. • The husk and the bran fractions together (seed coat material)
formed 26% of the millet
The process involves grain hydration followed by steaming and
pressing of the grains. The grain is soaked to its equilibrium moisture content and is
steamed or roasted to gelatinize the starch and dried to 18%
moisture , conditioned decorticated and then flaked by passing
through an edge runner. Thick flakes can be deep fried or dry roasted and this can be used for
uppitu after boiling and seasoning. These can be coated with any desired additives for value addition Since wet cooking slows down the digestion this feature can be
exploited for preparation diabetic foods at industrial scale
Flakes
Ref: Dept of food science technology, Kasetsart University, Thailand
Mechanical popping can be done by equilibrating the grain to 16% moisture and then exposing to 230 ºC for a fraction of a minute.
Special millet varieties are required for popping.
The varieties with hard endosperm with medium thick peri carp are suitable.
Some states in India, popped sorghum and millets are being marketed.
Can be used for further value added products like break fast bars, snack bars by combining with protein rich foods

PackagingStorage
Common bakery products such as biscuits , cakes and bread were prepared and tested using. Dehulled sorghum or millet grain and milled flour of finer particle size is most amenable for production of these products.
Incorporation of 20-30% refined wheat flour produces a product acceptable on par with wheat biscuits .

Suitable bacterial starter have been developed that can ferment milk as well as cereal solids
Process of fermentation reduced the level of phytate and improved the bioavailability of minerals
Conclusion • World over increasing number of NCD is leading
to Commercialization of millet products is the need of the hour
• Ready-to- eat food industry should come forward to provide a healthy food to the mankind keeping in view the changing demography
• Public private partnership helps for better commercialization
• Farmer encouragement
