Yams (Dioscorea species) are annual root tuber bearing plants with more than 600 species out of which six are socially and economically important

in terms of food, cash and medicine. The economically viable six (6) yam species are water yam (Dioscorea alata), white yam (Dioscorea rotundata), yellow yam (Dioscorea cayanensis), Chinese yam (Dioscorea esculant), three-leaf yams (Dioscorea dumentonum) and aerial yam (Dioscorea bulbifera).

They are grown in tropical regions and mostly produced in the savannah region of West Africa, where rainfalls are divided into wet and dry seasons.

Nigeria is the largest producer of yams in the world, followed by Ghana, Côte D’Ivoire, Benin, Togo, and Cameroon. Yams are mostly marketed as fresh tubers and prepared for consumption. Transportation and marketing are carried out both by farmers and traders.

As a business, yam production offers an opportunity for yam producers to earn steady income and also provide employment opportunities for countless number of men and women. On a national scale it also helps to reduce our dependence on other countries to meet our increasing food demand.
