Re: [Collab] Help accessing a WSJ article on millets

Thank you, Dipak, your help is most appreciated. It's normal on just about any topic related to food and ag to have a range of opinions. So it's interesting to read about some of these regarding millets in this feature article. I'll put together a short response, but note in the meantime that the authors incorrectly stated that the Year of Millets was declared by PM Narendra Modi's government, and no mention was made of the UN's role. (India was of course a key proponent in the UN for that declaration). This simple factual misstatement would have been missed by the WSJ editors. All the best, Don DO, EL, MI, US NAMA On Mon.
