Abstract

Millet production trends are diverse, with different characteristics seen in different regions. It is noteworthy that India recorded the highest production in 2022, but other regions also play an important role. Countries such as China and Brazil also maintain high standards in millet production and contribute to global supply. Production volumes also fluctuate from year to year due to climatic conditions and advances in agricultural technology. On the other hand, millet plays an important role in food security and needs to respond to increasing demand. There is a need to improve production efficiency through the promotion of sustainable agriculture and technological innovation. This is expected to stabilize millet production and improve its quality, contributing to global food supply.

Millet production (worldwide)

In millet production, it is noteworthy that India achieved a record production of 14.6 Mt in 2003. Since then, production has declined to about 80.9% of the peak. This trend reflects the impact of various factors on Indian agriculture. These include climate change and changing weather patterns, changes in agricultural policies, and advances in technological innovation. Other countries also play an important role in millet production, such as Brazil and China. These countries also influence the increase or decrease in production. Furthermore, there is a need to stabilize and increase production by promoting sustainable agriculture and introducing technologies. This is expected to contribute to stabilizing food supply and improving food security. Millet production shows different trends across regions and countries, so it is important to consider the differences in factors and policies across regions.

The maximum is 1.46G[2021] of China, and the current value is about 97.8%

Millet production (latest year, countries around the world)

It is noteworthy that India is the largest producer in the global millet market. In 2022 data, India’s production reached 11.8 Mt, while the global average production was 407 kt, totaling 30.9 Mt. This data shows the importance of India in the global millet market. Meanwhile, other countries also contribute to millet production, supporting the total global supply. This trend is influenced by differences in climatic conditions and agricultural policies in each region. In addition, fluctuations in demand and changes in market prices also affect production. Promotion of sustainable agriculture and technological innovation contribute to stabilizing production volume and improving quality. This is expected to strengthen the role of millet in the world’s food supply and improve food security. Economic factors and environmental considerations are also important, and comprehensive consideration of these factors is important in the production of millet in global agriculture.

The maximum is 1.43G of China, the average is 80.3M, and the total is 6.02G

Millet production (continent)

In millet production, Asia is notable for achieving a record production of 23 Mt in 1961. Since then, production has declined to about 67.8% of the peak. This trend reflects the impact of various factors on agriculture across Asia. These include population growth, increasing urbanization, a decrease in agricultural land, and climate change. Developments in agricultural technology and changes in policies also play an influence. Meanwhile, other regions also play an important role in millet production, such as Africa and South America. These regions also influence the increase or decrease in production. Stabilization and improvement of production is required through the promotion of sustainable agriculture and the introduction of technologies. This is expected to contribute to stabilization of food supply and improvement of food security. Millet production shows different trends across regions and countries, so it is important to consider the differences in factors and policies in each region.

The maximum is the latest one, 4.72G of Asia

Millet production (latest year, continent)

Looking at millet production data for 2022, it is noticeable that Asia is the largest producer. The production of 15.6 Mt is significantly higher than the global average production of 5.14 Mt. This shows that Asia is the leading region in millet production. Meanwhile, other regions are also actively participating in production, with the total global production reaching 30.9 Mt. Millet production is influenced by different factors in different regions. Examples include climatic conditions, advances in agricultural technology, and differences in agricultural policies. Promotion of sustainable agriculture and technological innovation contribute to improving and stabilizing production. It is also necessary to respond to increasing demand and changes in the market. Millet is a globally important grain and contributes to stabilizing food supply. However, environmental considerations and social aspects must also be taken into account. It is necessary to consider these factors in a balanced manner and build a sustainable agricultural system.

The maximum is 4.72G of Asia, the average is 1.47G, and the total is 7.37G
