Nama Indonesia :
Juwawut
Nama Lokal :
juwawut (Jawa), jawawut (Sunda)
Deskripsi :
Rumput tahunan, sering berwarna sedikit ungu. Sistem perakaran padat, dengan akar liar tipis dan liat dari buku terbawah. Batang tegak, lampai, menyrisip dari tunas terbawah, kadang-kadang bercabang. Pelepah daun silindris, terbuka diatas; ligula pendek, berjumbai, helaian daun memita-melancip. Perbungaan malai seperti bulir, buliran berbentuk menjorong, bunga bawah steril, bunga atas hermaprodit. Biji membulat telur lebar, melekat pada sekam kelopak dan sekam mahkota, berwarna kuning pucat hingga jingga, merah, coklat atau hitam.
Distribusi/Penyebaran :
Juwawut telah diketahui sebagai tanaman sereal sejak lama (5000 SM di Negeri China dan 3000 SM di Eropa). Tanaman ini mungkin asal perkembangannya dari rumput liar dan prosese domestikasi telah berlangsung mulai dari Eropa ke Jepang, bahkan barangkali hingga China; kemungkinan besar juwawut pertama kali didomestikasi di dataran tinggi di Cina tengah dan langsung menyebar ke India dan Eropa. Sekarang, juwawut telah ditanam diseluruh dunia dan menjadi jenis yang paling penting di Cina, India dan Eropa bagian tenggara. Di Asia Tenggara, jenis ini hanya ditanam sewaktu-waktu dalam skala kecil.
Habitat :
Jenis ini dapat ditanam di daerah semi kering dengan curah hujan kurang dari 125 mm dalam 3—4 bulan masa pertumbuhan. Jenis ini tidak tahan terhadap genangan dan rentan terhadap periode musim kering yang lama. Di daerah tropis, tanaman ini dapat tumbuh pada daerah semi kering sampai ketinggian 2000 m. Tanaman ini menyukai lahan subur tetapi dapat tumbuh dengan baik pada berbagai jenis tanah dari tanah berpasir hingga tanah liat yang padat, dan bahkan tetap tumbuh pada tanah miskin hara atau tanah pinggiran.
Perbanyakan :
Jenis ini dapat diperbanyak dengan biji, baik ditaburkan atau ditanam dalam lubang. Kebutuhan benih 8—10 kg/ha apabila jenis yang ditanam hanya juwawut. Di India, jenis ini sering ditanam dalam campuran dengan padi-padian, kapas dan gandum.
Manfaat tumbuhan :
Butir juwawut digunakan untuk makanan manusia di Asia, Eropa bagian tenggara dan Afrika utara. Mungkin dimasak dan dimakan seperti beras, baik utuh maupun dengan dihancurkan. Juga dapat ditumbuk dan tepungnya dibuat roti tak beragi atau ketika tepungnya dicampur dengan tepung terigu dapat dibuat roti beragi. Tepungnya juga digunakan untuk membuat bubur dan puding. Di Cina bagian utara, tepung ini menjadi bagian dari bahan pokok makanan dan biasanya dicampur dengan polong-polongan dan dimasak, atau tepung dicampur dengan tepung sereal lain untuk membuat adonan roti dan mi. Di India, juwawut dihargai sebagai makanan dan diperlakukan sebagai hidangan `suci` dalam upacara-upacara yang religius. Di Cina, juwawut dianggap sebagai suatu makanan yang bergizi dan sering direkomendasikan untuk wanita-wanita yang hamil dan orang tua. Sejak tahun 1990 juwawut juga telah digunakan di Cina untuk membuat keripik mini, juwawut gulung kering dan tepung untuk makanan bayi. Kecambah juwawut digunakan sebagai sayuran dan terutama di Rusia dan Burma (Myanmar), digunakan sebagai bahan untuk membuat bir dan alkohol, dan di Cina, juga digunakan untuk membuat cuka dan anggur. Di Eropa, juwawut dan jenis Setaria lain ditanam sebagai makanan unggas dan burung peliharaan. Hal yang sama juga terjadi di Indonesia. Setaria italica liar dapat menjadi gulma yang merugikan pada kebun gandum dan tanaman polong-polongan, terutama di daerah temperate/beriklim hangat. Sebagai bahan obat, juwawut dapat dipakai sebagai diuretic, astringent, digunakan untuk mengobati rematik.

Catatan dari Wikipedia
Juwawut (
Setaria italica) adalah sejenis
serealia berbiji kecil (
milet) yang pernah menjadi
makanan pokok masyarakat
Asia Timur dan
Asia Tenggara sebelum budidaya
padi dikenal orang. Tumbuhan ini adalah yang pertama kali dibudidayakan di antara berbagai jenis milet dan sekarang menjadi milet yang terluas penanamannya di seluruh dunia, dan yang terpenting di Asia Timur.
Catatan dari
Cina menunjukkan paling tidak juwawut telah dibudidayakan pada sekitar 6000 tahun sebelum
Masehi. Pada saat itu, juwawut menjadi satu-satunya biji-bijian yang dibudidayakan di sana. Dari Cina, tanaman ini kemudian menyebar ke barat, hingga mencapai Eropa pada sekitar milenium kedua sebelum Masehi. Orang
Romawi telah mengenal dan membudidayakannya, sehingga dikenal pula sebagai "milet Italia".
Tanaman juwawut adalah tanaman semusim seperti rumput, yang dapat mencapai ketinggian 2m.
Malainya rapat, be"rambut", dan dapat mencapai panjang 30cm, sehingga orang Inggris menamakannya "milet ekor rubah" (foxtail millet). Bulirnya kecil, hanya sekitar 3mm diameternya, bahkan ada yang lebih kecil. Warna bulir beraneka ragam, mulai dari hitam, ungu, merah, sampai jingga kecoklatan.
Terdapat dua kelompok
varietas biologis. Yang pertama adalah yang biasa dimakan orang,
S. italica var.

moharica.
Foxtail millet (botanic name
Setaria italica) is the second most widely planted species of
millet, and the most important in
East Asia. It has the longest history of cultivation among the millets, having been grown in
China since sometime in the
sixth millennium BC. Other names for foxtail millet include
Italian millet,
German millet,
Chinese millet, and
Hungarian millet.
Foxtail millet is an
annual grass with slim, vertical, leafy stems which can reach a height of 120–200 cm (3.9–6.6 ft). The seedhead is a dense, hairy
panicle 5–30 cm (2.0–12 in) long. The small seeds, around 2 mm (less than 1/8 in.) in diameter, are encased in a thin, papery hull which is easily removed in
threshing. Seed color varies greatly between varieties.
Common names for Foxtail millet
In India:
Tinai, camai, kavalai, kambankorai are some of the names for millet in Tamil.
Nuvanam is millet flour. The gruel made from millet, the staple of Ancient Tamils, is called kali, moddak kali, kuul, and sangati. Korralu (Telugu), Navane (Kannada)
In Chinese-Speaking Territories: Xiao Mi (小米), meaning 'Little Rice'.
In China, foxtail millet is the most common millet and one of the main food crops, especially among the poor in the dry northern part of that country. In
Europe and
North America it is planted at a moderate scale for hay and silage, and to a more limited extent for
birdseed.
It is a warm season crop, typically planted in late spring. Harvest for
hay or
silage can be made in 65–70 days (typical yield is 15,000-20,000 kg/ha of green matter or 3,000-4,000 kg/ha of hay), and for
grain in 75–90 days (typical yield is 800–900 kg/ha of grain). Its early maturity and efficient use of available water make it suitable for raising in dry areas.
Diseases of foxtail millet include leaf and head blast disease caused by
Magnaporthe grisea,
smut disease caused by
Ustilago crameri, and green ear caused by
Sclerospora graminicola. The unharvested crop is also susceptible to attack by
birds and
rodents.

Origin and geographic distribution
Foxtail millet is an old crop, grown since 5000 BC in China and 3000 BC in Europe. It probably evolved from the wild
Setaria viridis (L.) P.Beauv. (green foxtail millet), and it was most probably first domesticated in the highlands of central China, from where it spread to India and Europe soon thereafter. Evidence for this origin, however, is not conclusive and its domestication may have taken place anywhere in the area extending from Europe to Japan, perhaps even several times independently. Foxtail millet was the ‘panicum’ of the Romans. At present foxtail millet is cultivated all over the world. In tropical Africa it is cultivated to a limited extent in upland areas in East Africa and occasionally recorded elsewhere, e.g. in Cameroon and southern Africa (Malawi, Zimbabwe, Mozambique). In these areas it also occurs as an escape. Foxtail millet is also grown in South Africa and Lesotho.
Uses
The husked grain of foxtail millet is used as food in Asia, south-eastern Europe and Africa. It is most important in China and India. The grain may be cooked and eaten like rice, either entire or broken. It can be ground and made into unleavened bread or, when mixed with wheat flour, into leavened bread. The flour is also made into cakes, porridges and puddings. In northern China foxtail millet forms part of the staple diet; it is usually mixed with pulses and cooked, or the flour is mixed with that of other cereals in the preparation of bread and noodles. It is considered a nutritious food and is often recommended for the elderly and for pregnant women. Since the 1990s it has been used in China for the industrial preparation of mini crisp chips, millet crisp rolls and flour for baby foods. Foxtail millet is used in the preparation of beer and alcohol, especially in Russia and Myanmar, and for vinegar and wine in China. Sprouted seeds are eaten as a vegetable, e.g. in China.
In Europe and the United States foxtail millet is primarily grown as bird feed. It is an important fodder crop (‘moha’); in the United States and Europe it is grown for hay and silage, and in China the straw is an important fodder. The straw is also used for thatching and bedding, e.g. in India. The bran serves as animal feed and can be used for oil extraction. Foxtail millet is credited with diuretic, astringent and emollient properties and is used to treat rheumatism. It can be sown in contour strips for erosion control.
Production and international trade
Production statistics for foxtail millet are scarce because they are usually lumped with those of other millets. The annual world production of foxtail millet in the early 1990s was estimated at 5 million t (18% of total millet production), with China being the main producer. In tropical Africa the production of foxtail millet is much lower than that of pearl millet (
Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br.) and finger millet (
Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn.), but no statistics are available. In India and China foxtail millet is mainly grown for home consumption.
Properties
The composition of foxtail millet grain per 100 g edible portion is: water 12 g, energy 1470 kJ (351 kcal), protein 11.2 g, fat 4.0 g, carbohydrate 63.2 g, crude fibre 6.7 g, Ca 31 mg, Fe 2.8 mg, thiamin 0.6 mg, riboflavin 0.1 mg and niacin 3.2 mg (FAO, 1995). The essential amino-acid composition per 100 g grain is: tryptophan 103 mg, lysine 233 mg, methionine 296 mg, phenylalanine 708 mg, threonine 328 mg, valine 728 mg, leucine 1764 mg and isoleucine 803 mg (FAO, 1970). The starch granules are spherical, angular or polyhedral with a diameter of 6–17 μm. Most foxtail cultivars are non-glutinous and are thus suitable for the diet of people with coeliac disease. The bran contains about 9% oil.
Description
Erect annual grass up to 150(–175) cm tall, tufted, often variously tinged with purple; root system dense, with thin wiry adventitious roots; stem erect, tillering at base, sometimes branched. Leaves alternate, simple; leaf sheath 10–15(–25) cm long, glabrous or slightly hairy; ligule short, fimbriate; blade linear, 15–30(–50) cm × 0.5–2.5(–4) cm, acuminate at apex, midrib prominent, slightly rough. Inflorescence a spike-like panicle 5–30 cm × 1–2(–5) cm, erect or pendulous, continuous or interrupted at base; rachis ribbed and hairy; lateral branches short, bearing 6–12 spikelets. Spikelets almost sessile, subtended by 1–3 bristles up to 1.5 cm long, elliptical, usually about half as long as the bristles, 2-flowered; lower glume small and 3-veined, upper glume slightly shorter than spikelet, 5-veined; lower floret sterile, upper one bisexual with 5-veined lemma and palea, 2 lodicules, 3 stamens and superior ovary with 2 plumose stigmas. Fruit a caryopsis (grain), broadly ovoid, up to 2 mm long, pale yellow to orange, red, brown or black, tightly enclosed by lemma and palea.
Other botanical information
Setaria comprises about 100 species distributed in the tropics, subtropics and temperate regions. Foxtail millet is the most economically valuable species of the genus. Several wild
Setaria species are harvested for their seeds, e.g.
Setaria finita Launert in Namibia.
Setaria sphacelata (Schumach.) Stapf & C.E.Hubb. ex M.B.Moss is cultivated as a forage throughout the tropics and its grains are gathered as a famine food in Africa. The grains of
Setaria pumila (Poir.) Roem. & Schult. are also eaten as a famine food, e.g. in Mali, Burkina Faso, Sudan and Ethiopia, but it is more important as a forage.
Setaria verticillata (L.) P.Beauv. is a forage plant, but also collected as a famine food, e.g. in Niger, Sudan and Namibia.
Setaria italica is a ‘crop-weed complex’, i.e. with wild and cultivated types. These types show no crossing barriers and isozyme analysis and molecular studies have confirmed their similarity. The wild types are considered to represent
Setaria viridis (green foxtail millet), the cultivated ones
Setaria italica (foxtail millet).
Green foxtail millet occurs worldwide as a variable, annual weed, especially common in temperate regions. It differs from foxtail millet in its completely caducous spikelets, upper glume about as long as the spikelet and more roughly papillose lemma. It is sometimes considered a subspecies of
Setaria italica: subsp.
viridis (L.) Thell. It is also known as green bristle grass, and is one of the world’s most noxious weeds, but it is sometimes used as fodder or for medicinal purposes.
Foxtail millet is very variable and numerous cultivars exist, differing in time to maturity, plant height, size, habit and structure of inflorescence, number, colour and length of bristles, and colour of grain. Primitive cultivars have numerous, strongly branched stems (like green foxtail millet), while advanced cultivars produce a single stem with a large, solitary inflorescence.
Growth and development
Foxtail millet generally starts flowering at about 60 days after sowing, and flowering lasts for 10–15 days. Flowering proceeds from the top of the panicle downward. The flowers open late at night or early in the morning, and close soon after opening. Foxtail millet is largely self-pollinating with an average outcrossing rate of 4%; natural hybrids between wild and cultivated types occur. Total crop duration is 80–120 days, although some cultivars only need 60 days to mature. Foxtail millet has largely lost the ability of natural seed dispersal, and shows a tendency toward uniform plant maturity. Foxtail millet follows the C
4-cycle photosynthetic pathway.
Ecology
Foxtail millet is primarily a crop of subtropical and temperate regions; in the tropics it is grown up to 2000(–3300) m altitude. It does not tolerate frost. In China and India it is mainly grown in areas with an annual rainfall of 400–800 mm. Foxtail millet is not particularly drought-resistant, but its short crop cycle makes it suitable for low-rainfall areas and it can be grown in semi-arid regions with rainfall less than 125 mm in the 3–4 months of growth. It is, however, susceptible to long periods of drought. Flowering is normally accelerated by short days, but day-neutral cultivars exist. Foxtail millet prefers fertile soils with a pH of about 6.5, but can be grown successfully on a wide range of soils, from light sands to heavy clays, and even yields reasonably well on poor or marginal soils. It does not tolerate waterlogging.
Propagation and planting
Foxtail millet is propagated by seed. The 1000-seed weight is about 2 g. Dormancy is common in freshly harvested seed. The recommended seed rate for sole cropping in Kenya is 4 kg/ha, with a distance of 30 cm between rows and 10 cm within the row. In China and India it is sown at a seed rate of 5–15 kg/ha when grown in pure stands, with plant densities of 300, 000–1.5 million plants/ha. It is either broadcast or drilled in rows 20–60 cm apart, with 5–20 cm within the row, and thinning may be practised. The usual sowing depth is 3–6 cm and a fine, firm seed-bed is required. Foxtail millet is grown as a sole crop or intercropped, e.g. with finger millet, cotton, sorghum or pigeon pea in India.
Management
In Kenya the first weeding of foxtail millet is recommended at 2–3 weeks after emergence of the seedlings, and the second one 2 weeks later. In India foxtail millet is usually weeded once at about 3 weeks after sowing. Foxtail millet responds well to manuring, but generally only irrigated crops are manured. It is usually grown as a rainfed crop, but it may also be grown under irrigation, e.g. in India. Crop rotation of foxtail millet with finger millet and sorghum is common in India. Sometimes it is grown as a catch crop when paddy rice has failed.
Diseases and pests
The most serious diseases of foxtail millet are blast (
Pyricularia setariae), downy mildew (
Sclerospora graminicola), leaf rust (
Uromyces setariae-italiae) and smut (
Ustilago crameri). Downy mildew and smut can be controlled by treating the seed. Important insect pests of foxtail millet are shoot flies (
Atherigona spp.), crickets, borers and caterpillars. Foxtail millet is highly susceptible to bird attack in the field, and mice and rats also damage the crop. In stored grain, seed smut (
Sorosporium bullatum) and kernel smut (
Ustilago paradoxa) may cause considerable losses in addition to the common cereal storage insects.
Harvesting
Foxtail millet is harvested manually by cutting off the panicles and threshing them. Mechanical harvesting with a combine or binder is possible. In southern India whole plants may be cut and threshed by trampling by cattle or by passing a stone roller over the plants. When grown for fodder, foxtail millet should be harvested before flowering.
Yield
The average annual yield of rainfed foxtail millet is 800–900 kg/ha of grain and 2500 kg/ha of straw. Improved cultivars in China yield 1800 kg/ha of grain in regions with less than 900 mm annual rainfall. Much higher grain yields can be obtained with irrigation (in China experimental yields have reached 11 t/ha). As forage it may yield 15–20 t green matter per ha or 3.5 t hay.
Handling after harvest
Foxtail millet should be dried thoroughly before storage. The grain is usually husked just before processing because husked grains are readily infested with insects. Husking can be done with a stone roller or with rice milling machinery. In China mini crisp chips are made by cooking husked grains, pressing the product to 1 mm thickness, drying, frying in oil and flavouring. Crispy rolls are prepared from husked grains which are soaked in water, ground and, after addition of sugar, toasted between 2 iron plates and formed into rolls.
Genetic resources
Large collections of foxtail millet germplasm are kept by the Institute of Crop Germplasm Resources (CAAS), Beijing, China (25,380 accessions), the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), Patancheru, India (1528 accessions) and the All India Coordinated Minor Millet Project, University of Agricultural Sciences, Bangalore, India (1300 accessions). In Africa a collection of 451 foxtail millet accessions is kept at the National Dryland Farming Research Station, Machakos, Kenya. Resistance to blast and rust has been identified in germplasm collections.
Breeding
Foxtail millet breeding is mainly carried out in China and India. Major breeding objectives are developing high-yielding cultivars which produce protein-rich seed and are resistant to diseases, pests and lodging, and adapted to local ecological circumstances. In China, for example, cultivars with a short growing cycle and a high drought and cold tolerance have been developed; these can be grown in the summer season after winter wheat. The recommended cultivar in Kenya is ‘KAT/FOX-1’; it matures in 3–4 months. Techniques applied in foxtail millet breeding include selection, hybridization (using male-sterile lines) and radiation-induced mutations. Due to the floral morphology (very small flowers) and flowering behaviour of foxtail millet, artificial cross-pollination is difficult, but an effective procedure for artificial hybridization of foxtail millet has been developed in the United States. High levels of heterosis for grain yield (67%) and panicle length (68%) have been found.
Prospects
On a worldwide scale foxtail millet has lost its importance as a food crop in competition with major cereals such as wheat, rice, maize and sorghum. However, because of its short crop cycle and the fact that it can be grown on a wide range of soil types it may remain a useful crop in Asia on poor agricultural land in regions with low rainfall or a short growing season. The prospects for foxtail millet in tropical Africa seem limited, but it may gain importance as a niche crop in dry regions at medium to high altitudes.
