Great post! Thanks. I'm a small agroecological producer in Europe.

I'm interested in naked millet grains: Eleusine coracana (ragi) and also Pennisetum glaucum (bajra).

Do you know Indian sites to buy a few kilograms of these grains?

Are the naked millets sold for cooking able to be sown?

Also: do you think they could grow well in Mediterranean weather? (It rains a bit at the beginning of the millet crop, not afterwards)

Thanks so much 🙏

PS By the way, your "ragi" link does not open. I heard that ragi is not only stunning for our health, but also for the soil.

Hi Carles, unfortunately the questions you have asked are outside my expertise. You will have to get in touch with anyone from the Indian farming community. Good luck on your search and sorry for not being able to provide answers.
