Growing, Cultivating & Harvesting Siridhanya through Kadu Krushi/Jungle Farming

Siridhanya/Positive grains are available even now only in our country. The British started to look down upon these grains ever since they landed in India. As these were called as millets or minor millets and since the notion that they need not be eaten was created, they went almost extinct. We have been eating paddy rice only for the past 128 years. Paddy and wheat are grown just in those places where there is an adequate supply of water for irrigation. In the past, paddy ric

Will there be enough millets to feed the world?

In my post a few days ago, I had presented my arguments as to why we should start including millets in our diets. Almost everyone who works on agriculture and food systems recognizes and acknowledges that given the changing climate and rainfall patterns, in the not too distant future, we will not have sufficient paddy rice and wheat to feed the world if we continue down the track we are on. There are quite a few solutions that people are working on to mitigate this impending

Satiety index & how much millets should I cook?

Millets have a higher satiety index when compared to white paddy rice, i.e. one feels full and sated after eating a smaller quantity of millets as compared to white paddy rice. As one would expect the satiety index is not a very objective quantity. It is a statistical construct to quantify a subjective thing and hence should typically be considered as a range or as a comparative measure rather than an indicator of an absolute characteristic. The satiety index for millets, gen

Why eat millets?

The world we live in and are leaving our children cannot sustain the food systems that we grew up with and have practiced so far. Climate change, water demand, nutrient shortfalls, there are many reasons for us to start rethinking our food critically. Paddy requires about ten times more water to reach our plate, wheat about five times. Both paddy and wheat are somewhat temperatures sensitive when growing. They both need frequent protection from pests and monitoring for defici
