Millets are the traditional grains that are grown and eaten in the Indian subcontinent for at least the past 5000 years. Our Proso Millets are procured directly from farmer groups that grow crops in natural, sustainable, and traditional methods. At our unit, first dust, impurities, and stones are removed using De-stoner and Aspirator machines, then the good quality millets and broken millets are separated using a Grader machine. Finally, the outer Millet husks are grounded using the Pulverizer machine to get the healthy Proso millet flour. Our Proso millet flour contains more dietary Fiber, protein, iron, Vitamin B1, and other minerals content than regular white rice. Finally, the cleaned millet is packed hygienically for better shelf life.
