Kodo Millet

Kodo millet, scientifically known as Paspalum scrobiculatum, is an ancient grain widely grown in India, especially in states like Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and parts of South India.

It is a small, light brown grain with a slightly coarse texture and mild, earthy flavor. Traditionally, it has been a staple food in rural and tribal communities due to its hardiness and high nutritional value.

Kodo millet is now gaining popularity as a healthy alternative to rice and wheat, especially among people looking for gluten-free and low glycemic foods.
