India is the worlds’ largest producer with a global market share of 41.04 percent. The main aim of the paper is to study the role of production of millets, health benefits of millets and to examine the millet processing in India .The main aim of the paper is to study the role of production of millets, the health benefits of millets and to examine the millet processing in India.
