Ragi (Finger Millet) Wholesale: Grain, Flour and Flakes from Hill Farms

November 1, 2026  ·  Himalayan Region

Ragi goes by many names in the trade. This page lines up the names, the formats and the minimum order for hill-grown Mandwa.

Finger millet is known as ragi in much of India and as Mandwa in Uttarakhand. Himalayan Region™, a B2B sourcing company in Dehradun, Uttarakhand sources hill-grown Mandwa through village groups and offers it as grain and as processed formats.

Himalayan Region™: a millet field on a hill slope in Uttarakhand

One grain, many names

Buyers searching for the same product use ragi, nachni, mandua, marua, Mandwa, finger millet or Eleusine coracana. They all point to the same grain, so make sure a quotation names it the way your customs and label teams expect.

Formats

  • Whole grain, cleaned and graded
  • Flour, stone-ground or machine-milled as agreed
  • Flakes and other value-added formats on request

Our listed minimum for Mandwa is 200 kg. Smaller sample lots go out first so you can test colour, taste and milling before a trial order.

What to check in a sample

  1. Grain size and uniformity
  2. Cleanliness and moisture
  3. The smell of the flour: it should be clean and mild
  4. The batch Certificate of Analysis that matches the lot

Why hill-grown matters to a brand

Hill farms are small and the harvest is local, so a brand can tell a specific origin story and show a producer group behind it. We help with that: village names and harvest year can go on documents where we can support them.
