Abstract: Millets are highly nutritious, climate-resilient crops critical for food security and sustainable agriculture. This study aimed to design and test an educational video module to improve awareness and knowledge about millets among rural women. The present study was conducted in two phases, in phase I, the video module was developed and evaluated by 30 experts. In phase II, the developed video module was field tested with 120 randomly selected rural women of six villages of Banaskantha district to check its effectiveness. Data were collected by using interview schedule, and analyzed by using frequency, mean, and paired t-tests. The findings revealed that the developed video module was rated very good to excellent by experts for visual, audio, content and presentation aspects (3.78-4.98 MS). Findings further revealed that significant improvement in knowledge after exposure to video module was seen as 62.50 per cent respondents were in excellent knowledge category in post test. Thus, it could be concluded that developed video module on "millet" was excellent.
