Yam by kollymore1(m): 12:49pm On Mar 22, 2016
YAM Dioscorea spp.

This one of the most important staple foods in the west African sub region where over 70% of annual world production comes from.
Nigeria is ranked the largest producer of yam in the world followed by Ivory coast, Cameroon and Ghana in that order but surprisingly Ghana is responsible for over 90% of yam exports on the continent.
This is another means through which we could earn export proceeds(in foreign currencies) as farmers/business men and improve on our economy as a nation.

Let's go back to the farm, we can grow together.
