Millet is a type of cereal grown extensively in Asia and Africa. The major producers of Millet include India, Nigeria, Niger and China. Millet does not require a lot of rain, due to which it is concentrated in the drier regions of each country. In India bread made of Millet is very popular. In European countries millet has been historically used as porridge, especially in poorer regions. Millet is also used in the manufacture of wine and beer.
