HYDERABAD:
The International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) launched a collaborative project to enhance the utilisation of sorghum and pearl millet grains in the poultry feed industry in India, China and Thailand.
Funded by the Common Fund for Commodities, Netherlands, and the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United States, the project brings together partners from agricultural research institutes, universities, NGOs, poultry feed manufacturers, poultry growers and farmers groups from the three countries, an ICRISAT press release said.
The project aimed at linking small and marginal farmers growing sorghum and pearl millet with poultry feed manufacturers, resulting in value addition and enhanced income for the farmers.
The three year project has a total funding of $2.1 million. It will be operational in AP and Maharashtra within India.
