Millets are referred to as coarse grains due to their relatively larger seed size and tougher husk compared to finer grains like wheat and rice. They are often less refined, retaining more of their nutrients, fiber, and minerals, which contribute to their classification as coarse. Additionally, their hardiness and adaptability to diverse growing conditions make them more resilient, further emphasizing their classification as coarse grains.
Quartzite is typically coarse-grained, with individual grains visible to the naked eye. This is because quartzite is formed by the metamorphism of sandstone, where the original sand grains recrystallize into larger grains.
cereals are large grained , grown as a main crop , grown in good soil and require good amount of rainfall , they are economically important whereas millets are small grained , grown as a mixed crop , grown in poor soil and require low rainfall , they are economically less important
The type of rock that typically has discrete sections of minerals in coarse grains is called a "granite." Granite is an igneous rock composed mainly of quartz, feldspar, and mica, and its coarse-grained texture allows individual mineral crystals to be easily distinguished. The slow cooling of magma beneath the Earth's surface facilitates this coarse crystallization. Other examples of coarse-grained rocks include diorite and gabbro, which have similar textures but different mineral compositions.
Another word for coarse or containing grains is "granular." This term describes a texture that is made up of small, distinct particles or grains, often used in contexts like soil, sugar, or certain materials. It conveys a sense of roughness or unevenness in texture.
Coarse grain
Jowar, Bajra, Ragi like millets is known as coarse grains.
Millets are known as coarse grains that can be grown on less fertile and sandy soil.
Millets are variable small seeded grasses. These are used to grow cereal crops and grains for fodder and human food.
Fine grains are harder than coarse grains
Jowar, Bajra, Ragi like millets is known as coarse grains.
When all grains in a rock are large and easy to see, the rock is described as coarse-grained.
Visible crystals or grains would be referred to as a coarse grained texture.
rocks with grains that can be identified with naked eye
Quartzite is typically coarse-grained, with individual grains visible to the naked eye. This is because quartzite is formed by the metamorphism of sandstone, where the original sand grains recrystallize into larger grains.

The size, shape, and arrangement of grains in a rock is known as its texture. Grains can vary in size from fine (small) to coarse (large), and can be rounded or angular in shape. The position of grains within a rock can be random or show preferred orientation.
