Evaluation of diverse and nutrient-rich climate-resilient crops/accessions for dietary diversification in marginal environments
Description of Experiments
Evaluation of selected finger and foxtail millet genotypes for their agronomic performance under varying levels of salinity and irrigation regimes
Objective:
To introduce, evaluate and identify nutritious, climate-resilient millet crops for their suitability and dietary diversification for marginal areas.
