As part of the government’s food and agriculture education policy, the Taitung District Agricultural Research and Extension Station (TTDARES) of the Ministry of Agriculture held a food and agriculture class themed on millet at Zhiben Elementary School on Wednesday, March 20, 2024, which was attended by a total of 40 students and teachers. Lin Chien-chung, one of the Top Hundred Young Farmers (4th edition) was the instructor and spoke about the way millet is eaten and its nutritional value. Millet is a traditional food and the oldest crop of Taiwanese Indigenous people, and it is thus viewed as the most sacred of crops by them. To help students better understand millet spikes and seeds, millet and djulis spikes were brought to show students how to distinguish between the two. The students were also taught how to remove and hull the kernels. They then learned to plant millet in rows. After the class, a student surnamed Hu expressed how interesting it is that millet and djulis differ not only in spike color but in the size and color of their hulled kernels too. Teachers who participated said they believe the event helped the kids understand more about this traditional crop of Indigenous people. We look forward to more schools choosing to traditional crops as instructional materials in organizing food and agriculture education classes that have a local flavor.
