dc.description.abstractSmall Millets (SM) provide superior nutritional content compared to other cereals, as well as medicinal properties. They are grown in diverse cropping systems and, with small-scale dehulling, nutrients are retained. This report covers aims, activities, outputs and outcomes of this successful project in Tamil Nadu region, India. Scaling up Small Millets (SUSM) partnership scores high on sustainability measurements with a team whose dedication to SM extends beyond the Canadian International Food Security Research Fund (CIFSRF) project timeframe. To date the project has been successful in the proposed scale up, helping large numbers of micro- and small enterprises produce (healthier) millet products.en
