Traditional African Vegetables
Bioversity International (Bioversity International)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/104197
Abstract
Many species of African traditional vegetables are poorly known, being used only locally. They are difficult subjects for conventional agronomic study, often being cultivated in small patches in domestic gardens or growing as weeds in marginal areas within farms or wild in forest areas. However, they are extremely important for nutrition and farm income throughout Africa, often supplying…
