Ability of millets to sustain in changing climatic conditions

Millets are majorly grown in semi-arid tropic of Africa and Asia wherein these regions together account for more than 95% of overall production. Changing climatic conditions and reducing water level in these regions will positively influence millet cultivation in subsequent years as it requires very less water content as compared to other crops such as rice and wheat.
