Abstract
The angle of repose for sorghum, pearl millet, finger millet, Kodo millet, fox tail millet and little millet increased linearly with the increase of moisture content and the bulk density decreased linearly for all the grains. Regression equations were fitted and the regression coefficients ranged from 0.90 to 0.99.
