Description:

Yam (Dioscorea spp.) are important products in many countries. They are the third mos consumed crops in the Sub-Saharan region, especially in West Africa and are also largely consumed in the South Americas, India, and South-East Asia .Yams represented a guarantee of food security for centuries, especially before the introduction of crops such as corn and maize, dried yam chips are produced through peeling, slicing, blanching, steeping, and sun-drying. Yam flakes are obtained with the same process as yam chips, where the drying process is faster due to the smaller size of the
flakes.
Yam chips and flakes can be further milled into flour, which can be reconstituted in boiling water
to form a thick paste, consumed for meals in tropical areas as a source of carbohydrates. We supply the product in high quality.
