I'm sure they got the seedling from the Netherlands. That country is the silicon valley of agricultural. They also have phenomenal levels of productivity in agriculture.

Despite their small size, the country is The largest food exporter in the European Union. I doff my hats to these guys

That yam should be kept in a museum.

How can we be sure the weight was what was stated...Naija, I hail... In a better clime, the picture will be taken on the scale with the dial indicating the weight.. Those peasants in pic don't appear to have access to such facility

I find it difficult to believe...what!!!

I YAM THAT I YAM

So you don't know that a bag of cement is 50kg...

This is approximately 3½ bags nah...

Of course the Institute of Crop Research exists but only as another reason to inflate our yearly budget. Where things work, the yam seedlings from this massive harvest will be understudied to improve our agricultural output. And with a harvest like that replicated, think what it can do as a forex earner.

Don't be surprised if he donate this yam to his pastor as Thanksgiving or as seed

Nice one bro!
There are some that are way bigger than this

thundafire:
This can last a family of 6 close to 5 weeks unless dey are gluttons then 2 weeks

Have harvested yams that are bigger than this by far before. The yam planted inside cocoa farm are always bigger than this. We call it "isu dagi" in Yoruba. Ajebo children will not know this.

One bag of rice is how many KG

179kg with that size? I mean over 3.5 bags of cement. That yam must be a neutron star

...Ike Ekweremadu won't come and eat this one unless it's cooked abroad..
