Pearl millet is the most widely grown type of millet. It has been grown in Africa and the Indian subcontinent since prehistoric times. The center of diversity, and suggested area of domestication, Bajra is a traditional Hindi name for the Pennisetum glaucum crop — also known as pearl millet. It's likewise known as dukn, cumbu, gero, sanio, kambu, babala, or bulrush millet (1). The grain is primarily grown in Africa and India, where it's a major source of nutrition.
