Guest guest Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Dear Kiran Kumar, You will not get Jawar at the groceries shop. You will get it from the shop which sells food grains like wheat, maize, bajara etc. It is not red in colour, it just has red tinge/spots on the grain. It is primarily white with slight red spots here and there. Juar or Jawar is a very common name. Jawar, Bajara and makka [ maize] are the Kharif crops. The green plant of Jawar is known as charee and is used as green fodder for the animals. Sincerely, Priya , " G. Kiran Kumar " <tokiran+lalkitab wrote: > > is laal juar (or jawar) also called as red millets ? Is there any > other name to lal juar in Hindi ?

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Dear Sir, Thanks for the reply. I think I never saw jawar before. I searched for the word red millets in Internet and found few photos. With this in mind, I go to correct shop and purchase red millets. Is laal juwar called red millets in English ? Please correct me, if I am wrong. Kiran Kumar , " " < wrote: > > Dear Kiran Kumar, > > You will not get Jawar at the groceries shop.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Dear Kiran Kumar, Jawar or Juar is called millets. There is no such thing as red millets different from white millets etc. It is in common parlence that Jawar is called as 'lal jawar'. Sincerely, Priya , " G. Kiran Kumar " <tokiran+lalkitab wrote: > > Dear Sir, > Thanks for the reply. I think I never saw jawar before. I searched > for the word red millets in Internet and found few photos.
