Abstract
Teff [Eragrostis teff (Zucc.) Trotter] is native to Ethiopia. Self-pollinated warm-season annual grass with the advantage of C4 photosynthetic pathway and trapezoidal 2n=40 plant/crop. Countries like the USA, Canada, Australia, Netherlands, South Africa, and Kenya produce teff for different purposes such as forage crops, thickeners for soups, stews, and gravies. The largest production of Teff in the world is from Ethiopia where annually, above 6,562,325 farmers grow Teff on above 2.87 million hectares, which is about 22.95% of the total cultivated land in the country.
