ABOUT THE MILLETS MELA AT KENGERI

The organizers of the Organics and Millets Mela are Department of Agriculture, Banashankari, Bangalore & Jaivik Krishik Society. While we will be participating in the mela, Kaulige Foods is not an organiser of the event.

IMPORTANCE OF MILLETS

Millets like ragi (Finger Millet), navane (Foxtail Millet), haaraka (Kodo Millet), sajje (Pearl Millet), saame (Little Millet), baragu (Proso Millet) & Oodhalu (Barnyard) are one of the most important food sources in the Indian subcontinent. They are highly nutritious, gluten-free, non-acid forming and hence are soothing & easy to digest. Unpolished Millets contain a high amount of proteins, dietary fibre, B-complex vitamins, essential amino acids and Vitamin E. Millets are also rich in micronutrients like, iron, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium.

Compared to polished rice, millets release glucose over a longer period of time. This lowers the risk of diabetes and deters obesity.
