Odisha Millets Mission

“Special Programme for Promotion of Millets in Tribal Areas”

The nutritious millets traditionally occupied substantial part of the diets and crop systems in tribal areas of Odisha. Millets require less water and are more resilient to climate vulnerability. They can also be cultivated on the undulating and change and be cultivated even in undulating terrain. Reduction in millets resulted in nutrition deficiency. It led to unsustainable cropping systems increasing demand on water. In order to address growing crop failures and nutritional issues, millets need to be revived. To revive the millets, a flagship programme called “Special Programme for Promotion of Millets in Tribal Areas” has been launched by Department of Agriculture & Farmers Empowerment, Odisha. Programme intends to revive millets in rained farming systems and household consumption.

The project “Special Programme for promotion of Millets in Tribal Areas of Odisha” originated from the state level consultation on the subject “Comprehensive revival of millets securing nutrition and mitigating droughts in southern Odisha” held on 27th January 2016 at NCDS, Bhubaneswar organised by Planning and Convergence Department, Government of Odisha. As a follow up on the plenary recommendations chaired by Development Commissioner cum Additional Chief Secretary, a detailed Programme framework was developed.

Major Objectives of the Programme:

Increasing Household Consumption of millets by about 25% to enhance household nutrition security and to create demand for millets.
Promoting Millet Processing enterprises at panchayat and Block level to ease processing at households and for value added markets
Improving Productivity of millets crop systems and make them profitable.
Developing Millets Enterprises and establishing Market Linkages to rural/urban markets with focus on women entrepreneurs.
Inclusion of millets in State Nutrition Programmes and Public Distribution System

Special Programme for promotion of millets in tribal areas was launched in 2017 in Ganjam districts covering Sorada block in Phase 2 initiation
