Why would you rather buy it than grow
it? Naomi From:
nafex-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org [mailto:nafex-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org] On Behalf Of John S I've been growing yacon for a few years and think it is a worthwhile
investment of time. Each year I've been increasing space for it but space
is severly limited and I'm getting lazier. Considered and treated as a
fruit in some cultures, this is a tuber. I think yacon has potential as a commecial crop in the states and was
wondering if anyone here has experience with it or has tried it
commercially. I find it easy to grow, highly productive, no disease
issues, decent storage characteristics, good taste and easy to dig. With
apologies to to the apples guys/gals, I would rather eat yacon than
apples. My supply is usually gone by Christmas and this year I am
significantly increasing my production (home use only). Any thoughts? I'd rather buy it than grow it but that can only
happen if someone starts to produce it commercially. Yacon is available
from Nichols and Seeds of Change this year if anyone is interested. John Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile. Try
it now. |
