Description

Proso millet (Panicum miliaceum) is one of many crop species classified as millets. Millet is a term used to categorize a wide range of small-seeded cereals, most of which are not closely related. Proso millet is thought to be one of the earliest cultivated grains, likely preceding wheat. It was probably first domesticated in one or more regions of China. It was cultivated in what is now Turkey and southern Europe since prehistoric times. Proso, however, is an ancient Slav name used in Russia and Poland, which helps indicate the wide range of the grains early distribution. Proso millet, like many of the other millets, is adapted to marginal lands with limited fertility and water availability during the growing season. FAO crop production statistics groups all millets, so it is not possible to identify areas of the world where proso millet is specifically grown. Millets in generally, however, are important crops in west Africa, India and China. Proso millet was first introduced into the eastern Atlantic Coast of the U.S. from immigrants from Europe in 1875 but is now generally grown in the Great Plains. Proso millet has also been called common millet, hog millet, broom corn, yellow hog, hershey and white millet. Proso millet is a warm-season grass capable of producing seed in 60 to 100 days after planting. Because of its relatively short growing season, it has a low moisture requirement and is capable of producing food or feed where other grain crops would fail.
