About Us:
Vacancy Notice Technician, Assistant & LDC Vacancy – IIMR,Hyderabad (Andhra Pradesh)
- Indian Institute of Millets Research (IIMR) upgraded from Directorate of Sorghum Research (DSR), is the central agency to work on all aspects of millets research and development under the auspeces of Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR). While the main centre at Hyderabad campus is principally engaged in both basic and strategic research on millets, region-specific research and services are organized through two other centres – Solapur in Maharashtra and OSN, Warangal in Telangana.
- Millets are ancient Super grains the reservoirs of nutrition for a better health. Millets (sorghum, pearl millet and small millets) are the important food and fodder crops in semi-arid regions, and are predominantly gaining more importance in a world that is increasingly becoming populous, malnourished and facing large climatic uncertainties. These crops are adapted to wide range of temperatures, moisture-regimes and input conditions supplying food and feed to millions of dryland farmers, particularly in the developing world. Besides they also form important raw material for potable alcohol and starch production in industrialized countries. Millets (great millet – Sorghum, pearl millet -Bajara, Finger millet – Ragi, Foxtail millet, Little millet, Proso millet, Barnyard millet and Kodo millet) are hardy and grow well in dry zones as rain-fed crops, under marginal conditions of soil fertility and moisture and are stable yielders.
- Millets were indeed one of the oldest foods known to humans but they were discarded in favor of wheat and rice with urbanization and industrialization. Other millets that need we will also be focussing also are Brown top Millet, Teff, Fonio and Raishan- (Digitaria cruciata var.esculenta). With diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease running rampant, as gifts of newly acquired life-styles, millets have returned as a viable option to live healthy life without consuming loads of anti-diabetic and anti-hypertension medicines that are not only very expansive but also have serious side-effects in the long run. Indeed millets act as a prebiotic feeding micro-flora in our inner ecosystem. Millet will hydrate our colon to keep us from being constipated. The high levels of tryptophan in millet produce serotonin, which is calming to our moods. Magnesium in millet can help reduce the affects of migraines and heart attacks. Niacin (vitamin B3) in millet can help lower cholesterol. Millet consumption decreases Triglycerides and C-reactive protein, thereby preventing cardiovascular disease. All millet varieties show high antioxidant activity. Millet is gluten free and non allergenic.
- Above all, Millet’s high protein content makes up for energy deficiency in vegetarian diet. Millets are the super foods for the present and future., their short growing season – from planted seeds to mature, ready to harvest plants in as little as 65 days – make them commercially sound. When properly stored, whole millets will keep for two or more years. The challenge is to food-process millet in to tasty and ready to eat foods like biscuits, noodles and pre baked roties and ofcourse as Ready to eat and Ready to cook novel foods. Indian Institute of Millets Research is working in that diorection to fetch better income to the Millet growers. In order to keep up the momentum and the sustainability of commercialization process, Entrepreneurship development of the stakeholders is necessitated through interventions in food processing and product development and nutritional evaluation. Creating sustainable value chain has been one of the greatest challenges for the social scientists and research institutions at large. Therefore the ultimate goal of entrepreneurship development programmes is to disseminate thorough knowledge of post-harvest management which includes linkage of farmers with market, processing, nutritional importance of sorghum, and marketing. The stakeholders were trained who includes progressive farmers, rural entrepreneurs, NGOs, SHGs, small and medium scale processors, women group entrepreneurs on topics such as Nutritional importance of sorghum and millets, Post Harvest Technologies of Sorghum/ Millets, and Branding, Packaging and labelling. Similarly, another two projects under NAIP value chain mode were attempted by UAS, Dharwad and Raipur to study on small millets. These project’s successful stories may be available as a model for integrated approach for millets promotion across the country. The INSIMP, a Government of India’s scheme on millets promotion is an offshoot of policy sensitization of the efforts of IIMR led consortium which is now operating across the country for the third year. Three production scenarios for sorghum and other millets are envisioned below based on possible options/situations for working out estimates for long term planning. This would help in strategizing the research priorities in the context of changing scenarios.
