Abstract
Agriculture systems worldwide need to adopt sustainable cropping solutions to deal with existing issues of malnutrition, food insecurity, resource depletion and lifestyle health issues. Millets offer one such solution as they have nutritional, environmental and economical superiority over the most common staple grains in India viz. rice and wheat. The present literature review attempts to study different segments of the existing value chain of millets. The novelty of this study lies in the fact that it clearly identifies issues preventing large-scale consumption of millets, indicates the mathematical approaches that can be used to arrive at the alluded short and long-term strategies for millet promotion and proposes a roadmap to bring back millets to urban and rural plates. The findings of this study advocate having an integrated approach to enhance value chain efficiencies and developing a comprehensive framework for millet promotion, considering socio-economic, environmental and health sustainability.
期刊介绍：
Studies directed toward the more effective utilization of existing resources, e.g. mathematical programming models of health care delivery systems with relevance to more effective program design; systems analysis of fire outbreaks and its relevance to the location of fire stations; statistical analysis of the efficiency of a developing country economy or industry.
Studies relating to the interaction of various segments of society and technology, e.g. the effects of government health policies on the utilization and design of hospital facilities; the relationship between housing density and the demands on public transportation or other service facilities: patterns and implications of urban development and air or water pollution.
Studies devoted to the anticipations of and response to future needs for social, health and other human services, e.g. the relationship between industrial growth and the development of educational resources in affected areas; investigation of future demands for material and child health resources in a developing country; design of effective recycling in an urban setting.
