- Establishment of shelf life of millet flour (screening of germplasm for rancidity indicators/determinants, on oxidative enzymes & on bran fraction).
- To facilitate market linkages between processors and producers for organized sale/delivery.
- Development of new technologies, refinement and up scaling of already developed technologies of processing and value addition of nutri cereals.
