millets


We're baking our own bread recently and by now the shippai ritsu has gone
down enough to start using some less popular materials among which are Awa,
Hie and Kibi　（粟・ひえ・黍）.
I could find that Hie is barnyard millet but the other two are both
translated as plain "millet". Does anybody know what the exact English names
for Awa and Kibi are?
thank you!

ps, for people who speak Dutch, the same awa, hie and kibi al come to
"gierst", isn't it?
