Around 30 women from across Andhra Pradesh (a state on India's southeastern coast) took part in a three-day millet cart enterprise training workshop in Pendurthi, Visakhapatnam, learning to create commercial food products such as jowar-moong dal noodles, ragi milkshakes, and foxtail millet salads. The programme was organised by the Society for Elimination of Rural Poverty (SERP), a state government body, in partnership with Vishalakshi Innovations for Sustainable Ventures. The initiative aims to equip rural women with both the culinary and entrepreneurial skills needed to build small businesses around traditional, nutrient-rich grains, reviving millet consumption while generating new livelihoods.
