Answer:
Commonly known as pearl millet, bajra is one of the most widely grown varieties of millet. It is grown in bulk in Africa and India. It has been a staple diet for Indians since pre-historic times. Rajasthan is the largest producer of bajra in India.
Finger Millet is commonly known as “ragi” in India. The ragi word is originated from a Sanskrit word “raga” meaning red. This can be grown in almost all types of soils and climatic conditions.
