Hello Blurtters,

You need to know more about tuber crops and in Nigeria we have several kinds of crop that are in the category of tubers. Tubers is defined in my own dictionary meaning as an output of a crop of plant that is being harvested in the soil. Before you can call a produce a tuba it must be evicted from the soil that is the theoretical aspects and also the practical aspect of tuber crops. So aside yam we also have several tuber crops that is been arrested when you dig the ground for it to get it process, cook and consumed. These are the other two back rubs I know and I have mentioned in the past few articles.

OTHER TUBER CROPS.

  • Like I said earlier people pickpoint yam as their only two back from when I got a conversation on my discord channel few days ago and the conversation was very long with one of our community member where she talked about the yam as a tuber crop and I made mention of this as well

  • Cocoyam,

  • Coco-ghana,

  • Cassava.

  • Potatoes 🥔

  • Sweet potatoes.

  • Carrot 🥕

  • Garlic,

  • Spring Onions 🌰🌰,

  • Ginger,

  • Tumeric

This are more tuber crops I know like I said in my own definition does crop that can be arrested in the sun simple as ABC. We have hundreds or thousands of them depending on individual location country or continent.

So in my own case today I will talk about cocoa Ghana as the name implies. This is one of the tuber crops planted in one of the farm there in Ile ife Osun State Nigeria. We are we have hundreds of the plant standing on the farm. I would like to describe a little bit of how it looks like so that as soon as possible you see it anywhere you can definitely tell hundred percent what it is.

PLANT DESCRIPTION.

  • I will rather use my own English for you to absorb and know the description easily. The cocoa Ghana is related to normal Cocoyam we normally see outside or in our market. But the only difference is that the one I called cocoa Ghana has a very long tuber inside the sun which can relatively be compared to yam itself. But as soon as you dig the soil and you harvest cocoa Ghana, it has a very whitish liquid stain around its body if you mistakenly use your cutlass to cut any part of its body.

  • When you talk about the live formation as well as the stem, the stem is very closely with Cocoyam in appearance but at the top with the leaf formation. It has a wide broad leaf which distinguish it from cocoyam.

  • When you look at the stem to the bottom region it has a very deep close similarities with the cocoyam the only difference is that at the button base cocoa Ghana has a very traceable tuber signs

  • This is a little small bit of Coco Ghana reaching it Maturity Stage bit by bit. For it to reach it maturity state it will spend 6 months because for now I've never meet any form of hybrid cocoa Ghana because we have it locally.

  • The stem formation is also a very tiny one although we have the ones that are naturally big but it will have stayed longer than its normal periods in the soil

  • I would have loved to have asked some of the cocoa Ghana I saw but they were all very small, that means I would have cut off the growth but soon I will have to travel down there for this Purpose in the next few months.
