Book Description
Storage of sweetpotatoes, which have an important place in the human diet, benefits both the producer and the consumer, since it makes sweetpotatoes available throughout the year. While not all sweetpotatoes grown are marketed, over half of those which are will move to market between November and June, and must be stored for some time prior. Loss during storage is tremendous, therefore, there is much room for improvement in sweetpotato storage, which this bulletin addresses.
