NEW VEGETABLE GROWN
BY FARMERS IN SOUTH
Oasheen, Tropical Food Similar 10 the
Potato, Can Be Raised Over
a Wide Area.

Washington, d. c. The dasheen,
a root crop introduced into this coun-
try from Trinidad within recent years
BY the Department of Agriculture Is
now grown by considerable number
OF farmers and truckers in the South.
1t promises 70 become a valuable
mem.el OF the group of domestic veg
etables such as the potato which
furnish starchy foods. The new veg
etable is closely related to the taro,
which is an important factor in the
food supply in parts of the tropics.
The dasheen primarily S 4 tropical
plant. 1t can be grown successfully,
however, not only in the warmer parts
OF Florida, but in other sections of
the South as far north as South Caro-
lima.
The edible portion of the plant in
cludes large central CORN and a
number Of tubers of much smaller
size attached TO and around the CORN.
The value Of the dasheen, ii is be-
lleyed, will be as crop supplemental
10 rather than a substitute for the
potato. The fact that the dasheen ma.
lures in the fall when potatoes must
be obtained from Northern producing
sections should make the new plant
especially valuable in the economies
of the Southern farmer
In food value the dasheen is COM
parable to the potato, tho it contains
a smaller proportion Of water and a
greater proportion of protein, starch
and sugar
The new vegetable may be prepared
for the table as potatoes usually are,
or may be made into -four and used
in baking. The tender shoots forced
from the large corms may be be pre-
pared Ike asparagus and make a
pleasing dish in that form.
