My impression is that Yacon is not all that hardy and requires and long
season where Jerusalem artichokes do not.
As far as similar crops go I think there are some canna and canna related
crops that might be worth checking out. If I remember correctly they have
inulin too. Look in one or more of Perennial Vegetable Crops by Eric
Toedmister (SP?) or Forest Gardening or Lost Crops of the Incas.
