Amaranthus belonging to the family Amaranthaceae, comprises a series of wild, weedy and cultivated species and found worldwide in almost all agricultural environments.

Among all the species, Amaranthus caudatus, Amaranthus hypochondriacus and Amaranthus cruentus are mainly cultivated for their seeds and are considered as pseudocereals, with a high seed protein content and a high lysine content. These Amaranthus species are cultivated in different regions of South and Central Ame rica, India, and Nepal.
