Ragi has a long history of use in India. More than 2000 years ago, Ragi, or finger millet, was a highly prized nutritious crop in traditional agricultural methods in India. It originated in Africa and was brought to India by sea around 2000 BCE. Ragi, along with many other millets, formed significant ingredients of the everyday diet in India, until nearly five to six decades ago. Rustic and coarse, yet nutritious, it fell by the wayside as people began to favour more refined diets. With the year 2023 declared as the ‘International Year of Millets,’ by the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), spearheaded by the Government of India under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, ragi, with its innumerable health benefits, is slowly finding its resurgence among urban and rural populations alike. Annapoorna Trust, with its initiatives of launching ragi or the finger millet in the Morning Nutrition program, has played a key role in the revival of this Superfood.
