This review highlights how millets improve nutrition and environmental sustainability, suggesting policy support is crucial.
This comprehensive review delves into the multifaceted role of millets as a critical bridge in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), concurrently addressing environmental sustainability and pressing health challenges. Millets, characterized by their adaptability and nutritional richness, are a nexus between agriculture, nutrition, and global development. This paper meticulously examines how millets align with specific SDGs, effectively contribute to environmental preservation through resource-efficient cultivation, and positively impact human health through their nutrient-dense composition. It underscores the urgency of recognizing millets as a sustainable solution. It advocates for policy support, research advancements, and widespread awareness to fully unlock their potential for a more resilient and nourished world. By critically analyzing existing literature and case studies, we seek to shed light on the opportunities and challenges in integrating millets into agricultural, dietary, and policy frameworks to foster sustainable development.
