A short film on millets was screened at Tamukkam Grounds, the venue of Madurai Symposium, on Friday. “Substituting a millet-based item instead of the popular rice or wheat will ensure better health,” said Ms. Urmila from Madurai. Entrepreneurs, farmers and scholars discussed emerging trends in processing and value addition of millets. Unless this changed and over emphasis on rice is stopped, millets cannot be promoted,” he said.
