Product Information
- Proso millet, which is also called millet, hog millet and yellow hog, can be used in several ways. Proso millet grain can be used for human consumption and livestock feed. It is also commonly used in the United States for bird seed. Millet is desirable for human food because it is easily digestible and gluten-free. It can be ground into flour, used to bake flatbreads, used to make tabbouleh or for brewing beer.
- Proso Millet is also used for food plots, dove fields, erosion control and exotic bird feed. Proso is versatile in that it can be successfully grown on many soil types and is probably better adapted than most crops to “poor” land, such as land with soils having low water holding capacity and low fertility. Proso Millet seed has a yellow shiny coat and grows from 3 to 5 ft. tall. Proso Millet matures in 75 days after emergence.
