Foxtail Millet fed Roman legions for centuries — then vanished from Western

In this video, we trace the history of Foxtail Millet (Setaria italica) — the

on for 8,000 years. Learn why Foxtail Millet was replaced by irrigated corn
during the U.S. federal subsidy restructuring of 1950–1970, and how to grow
heirloom Foxtail Millet seed in any backyard today — including the poorest soil you own.
