Abstract
Little Millet, scientifically known as Panicum sumatrense, hails from the Eastern Ghats of India and has become a dietary staple in tribal communities. Its adaptability has extended its influence to Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Myanmar. Cultivated in Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Andhra Pradesh, it plays a vital role in food security and livestock feed. Little Millets nutritional value supports a balanced diet, contributing to food security and dietary diversity. Despite its widespread cultivation, there is untapped potential. Research and sustainable farming practices could unlock its benefits, enhancing food security and livelihoods. Little Millet embodies resilience, adaptability, and cultural heritage, highlighting the intricate connection between agriculture, culture, and sustainable food practices.
