As we stand on the precipice of 2026, the ?Green Revolution? legacy of rice and wheat is facing its toughest test: a heating planet. While the world celebrated the 'Year of Millets' in 2023, a quieter, more urgent revolution is brewing in the margins of Indian agriculture. The Year 2025 has marked a pivotal shift in Indian agriculture, moving from ?Calorie Security? to ?Nutritional and Climate Security?. Beyond the ?Big Three? cereals and even beyond the popular millets, lies a treasure trove of ?forgotten grains?-crops like Amaranth, Buckwheat, Teff and Job's Tears. These are not just biological curiosities; they are agronomic powerhouses capable of thriving where modern hybrids fail. For us as young agronomists, the mission is clear: we must reintegrate these ancient grains to secure a climate-resilient future.
