An estimation was carried out with 65 indigenous and exotic barnyard millet germplasm to study the nutritional properties such as protein, carbohydrate and fibre content. The study revealed that, highest amount of protein was observed in ACM 161 (13.20 g/100 g), highest carbohydrate content was in ACM161 (76.20 g/100 g), crude fibre was highest in ACM 161 (10.80 g/100 g) with a grain yield of 47.8g/plant. In any crop the yield will be inversely proportional to the quality parameters. On the contrary in the present study, it was observed that ACM 161, ACM 110, ACM 145 and ACM 313 had high yielding as well as good in nutritional content.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
