A webpage and video on pearl millet by Regenerative Farmers of America offers a nice introduction to this grain: "Pearl Millet: The Drought Resistant Grain" (article & embedded video, 9:40), 9 July 2024, https://www.regenerativefarmersofamerica.com/regenerative-farmers-of-america... All-in-all an enthusiastic presentation with an international focus, that notes several of the strong points and limitations of this millet, as well as mentioning its ancient spread. However, it does not get into its uses in North America. Definitely recommended, but with attention to some details. For example, the focus on southern Africa as pearl millet's "forever home" might have been complemented by noting that Sahelian West Africa still produces more pearl millet than any other part of the continent. (The video rightly mentions India's pre-eminence globally in production of this millet.) Also, the discussion of growing the crop in colder climates (Russia) might also have pointed to Canada. The video has a good pace. However, occasional interspersed images of other plants and grains where they aren't part of the narrative might be confusing to viewers just learning about pearl millet. (For me, these were like visual off-notes.) For example, in the field, panicles of: foxtail millet (3:20); wheat (3:22 & 7:19); and sorghum (5:33 & 7:21) . And in grain form: what looks more like wheat (0:51 & 7:43); what appears to be proso millet (2:01, with flour); white rice (2:05, when mentioning riced pearl millet); and what resembles orange lentils (3:27). Plus an image of finger millet (3:49, when discussing water requirements). All that said, the video does have a nice range of photos of pearl millet grain (loose & in pots) and grain heads (in fields & also cut). Viewers learning about millets might find it useful to contrast the non-pearl millet images discussed above with those of pearl millet to get a better appreciation of the latter's characteristics. The video embedded in the article (link above) is also accessible directly on YouTube at: https://youtu.be/ajYsOyh0Y0Q Regenerative Farmers of America, according to their website at https://www.regenerativefarmersofamerica.com/about-regenerative-farmers-of-a... , "is run by Lauren Lovejoy & Eric Conrad," who are farmers in Virginia.
