Random information on the term “Grains”:
Eleusine coracana, or finger millet, is an annual herbaceous plant widely grown as a cereal crop in the arid and semiarid areas in Africa and Asia. It is a tetraploid and self-pollinating species probably evolved from its wild relative Eleusine africana.[2]
Finger millet is native to the Ethiopian and Ugandan highlands.[3] Interesting crop characteristics of finger millet are the ability to withstand cultivation at altitudes over 2000 m above sea level, its favorable micronutrient contents (high iron and methionine content in particular), its high drought tolerance, and the long storage time of the grains.[2]
Finger millet originated in East Africa (Ethiopian and Ugandan highlands) and came to India around 2000 BCE. It has been found in an Indian archaeological site dated to 1800 BCE (later Iron Age).[4] In Sri Lanka, it is known as kurakkan or kurahan (කුරක්කන්/ කුරහන්), and is mentioned in legends of ancient kings.
Main cultivation areas are Eastern and Southern African countries (Uganda, Kenya, Zaire, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Sudan, Tanzania, Nigeria and Mozambique) and Southern Asia (mainly India and Nepal).[2]
