Millet (Sorghum, Paniceae) is one of the oldest known grains and has been cultivated for thousands of years. The plant is undemanding, grows best in sunny, dry regions, and continues to play an important role as a staple food in Asia and Africa. Millet is rich in minerals such as silicon, iron, and vitamin B6 and is considered an easily digestible, gluten-free grain substitute.

In the food industry, millet is used as a base for porridge, baked goods, and even in beer brewing. As an animal feed, it is used primarily for birds and small animals. In addition, millet is used in industry—for example, as a natural fiber, in the production of cellulosic ethanol, or as an energy crop for biogas plants.
