A Case from Kolli Hills, India

One of the possible pathways for conservation of neglected agrobiodiversity resources is to bring them into use thereby making them viable crops within the contemporary social and economic context. The paper elaborates on the traditional agricultural practices of millets like little millet, Italian millet, finger millet, common millet, and Kodo millet in different landscapes and management conditions of the Malayali tribes in the Kolli Hills, Namakkal District, Tamil Nadu, South India.
