Ragi, also known as finger millet, stands as a testament to time, cultivated thousands of years ago in India and immortalized in Sangam literature. In the present day, its resurgence aligns with the UN's declaration of 2023 as the year of millets. As a drought-resistant grain, ragi plays a vital role in ensuring food security. Beyond its historical significance, ragi boasts a nutritional profile that surpasses traditional staples like wheat and rice.
