Abstract
This report on an international workshop about a successful programme for re-introduction of small millet varieties, reviews numerous paper presentations and follow-up questions from participants about many aspects of the three-year project. The small millets project succeeded in increasing productivity, income generation, farmer livelihoods, and consumption of millet varieties for improved nutritional security while reducing postharvest drudgery for women farmers through an improved de-hulling and milling process.
