ABSTRACT
Traditionally, agricultural research and development efforts have
focused on export crops and the major cereals. Relatively little attention
has been paid to roots and tubers. Recently the under exploited potential
roots crops have become more widely recognized. Roots and tubers are
productive food crops and they may also be used in manufacturing and
livestock feeding.
