immense potential in addressing food security and mitigating
the impact of climate change. However, despite their numerous
benefits, millet production and processing in many regions often face
challenges such as lack of awareness, limited access to technology,

and inadequate financial support. A comprehensive study on
government schemes dedicated to millet production and processing
can shed light on the existing initiatives, their effectiveness, and areas

that require improvement. This research can help policymakers,
farmers, and stakeholders identify gaps and opportunities, leading to
the formulation of more targeted and efficient policies and programs
to promote millet cultivation and processing. Ultimately, such a
study can contribute to the sustainable development of agriculture,

improved nutrition, and the overall well-being of rural communities.

The research gap in the existing literature on government schemes for
millet production and processing lies in the limited comprehensive
analysis and evaluation of these schemes’ effectiveness and impact.

While there is a growing recognition of the importance of millets in
addressing food security and sustainability challenges, there is a lack
of in-depth studies that assess the implementation, outcomes, and

barriers associated with these schemes. Additionally, there is a need
for research that examines the socio-economic and environmental
implications of these initiatives, as well as their alignment with
broader agricultural and nutritional goals. Therefore, a systematic
investigation into the current state of government schemes for millet

production and processing, their strengths, weaknesses, and their
real-world impact is essential to inform policy improvements and
enhance the success of these initiatives.
