Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A. Explanation: Millets serve as food grains for the poorer sections of society because they are highly nutritious, easily digestible, and can grow in harsh conditions such as infertile, rocky, or sandy soils with low rainfall. They are hardy, drought and heat resistant crops mainly grown in semi-arid regions where other crops like rice and wheat cannot thrive.
