Millets have a legacy of being deeply rooted historically and often
culturally, even while they are also readily shared. So as we explore new
opportunities with these diverse crops, it is important to respect those
roots, as well

Thank you Gary, for these thoughts. It would be interesting to hear some of

There are certainly different ways to spin it - might it be more a question
of a "neutral" taste? And that among some more than other millets?

Thank you, Nate, for sharing this news about Sorghum United, and thanks
also for the extensive work you and Sorghum United have been doing for
sorghum as well as other millets.
What you are building sounds like an exciting and useful set of forums for
facilitating communication and networking in
or another
publication - a review of current research in North America on millets.
That's too big a project to start from scratch now and complete in 6 weeks,
but if someone has already been collecting such information, maybe it could
be done.

Thank you, Dipak. This is very helpful. It is good to share info on this

and title key words/phrases

We have decided to pursue a less ambitious program of production (i.e., no
monthly panels), but the idea of millet-specific or topic-specific panels
with researchers and practitioners (farmers, processors, etc.) to discuss
challenges & opportunities is still active.
More soon,
