Excerpt from Yam Production Methods
From a nutritional standpoint, yams com pare favorably with potatoes (table 1) and surpass other staple root and tuber crops as sources of protein and amino acids. Tryptophan content is somewhat low. Since yarns have not been selected for nutritional value, screening and selection should promptly upgrade protein content and quality.
