New technology for yam production developed

-
A new technology for producing yam (ubi) has been developed by researchers of the Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University (DMMMSU) in La Union.

The technology was crafted by DMMMSU researchers led by Dr. Evangeline M. Pera to help root crop farmers, particularly those producing purple yam, to increase their income.

In doing the study, the researchers noted that ubi has been gaining popularity among farmers owing to its growing demand from food processors, especially those making it into candies and purees for making ice cream.

For those interested in the package of technology (POT) for successful yam production, you may communicate with Dr. Pera at the DMMMSU main campus in Barangay Sapilang, Bacnota, La Union. – RAF
