food, feed and fodder in the Asia-Pacific region. Several millets are
grown, with the predominant species including proso millet (Panicum
miliaceum) in the former USSR, foxtail millet (Setaria italica) in
China, finger millet (Eleunine' coracana) in Nepal, and pearl millet
(Pennineturn glaucum) in India, Pakistan, and Yemen (Rachie, 1975) . In
this region, sorghum and pearl millet grain crops are most important in
economies of the large semi-arid tracts of the Indian sub-continent.
The use of these grass species for fodder, especially sorghum and
sorghum-sudangrass hybrids, is much more widely distributed. In
climates where their maturing grains are not exposed to high humidity
and/or rainfall, ,these cereals are important sources of carbohydrates
in human diets, especially in rural areas. In these areas, stover from
sorghum and pearl millet grain crops is often an important source of
dry season maintenance rations for livestock. In parts of the region
having higher rainfall or higher humidity, and in areas where prices of
other grains are subsidized, food use of sorghum and millets is
limited.","1994","published",,,,,,,"46-60",,"Hybrid Research and Development Needs in Major Cereals in the Asia-Pacific Region","Bangkok","1994","conference",,,,,,"TRUE",,,,,,,,"",,"http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Current+Status+And+Strategy+For+Promoting+Hybrid+Sorghum+And+Pearl+Millet+Technology+&num=10&btnG=Search+Scholar&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&as_sdt=1.&as_sdtp=on","",,"","",,,,,,"",,,,,,,"",,,,,"",,,,,"","",,,,,"","",,,,,
