    In the case if you want to develop selling market of Yam, I explain my experiance. I am Japanese iving in Switzerland. We japanese we eat raw Yam, grinded and mixed with prepared broth, then
    pour on the fresh cooked rice, then mixed them and eat. However, origin of Yam from Africa, it has a bit of bitter tast. However, if you could develop and/or find the type of Yam which does not
    have the bitter tast, you will have the market for Japanese living abroad. Further, if you are interested, we might coordinate selling fresh vegetables of Japanese vegetables based on consignment vegetable grow. I am planning to run Ecommerce in Switzerland selling fresh vegetables. We can supply you seeds and technic and we share 50/50 loss & profit. But the most important for this
    biz is logistic. If there is no good transport route by air, this is the end of this biz. please comment.

      I am Ghanaian living in UK. I have 8 acres close to the capital which I grow vegetables. There are air freights to Switzerland from Accra airport. Can you give me the list of Japanese vegetables you would like? I'll do research on the growing conditions and see if they are suitable for open field cultivation or greenhouse, or feasible vegetables to grow in Ghana

      I am a Ghanaian living in Japan Saitama prefecture and I have never seen japanese yam before the only thing close to yam is sweet potatoe and it's not yam , what's the name of the yam u are talking about. We always buy yam from our African shops. I'm thinking of exporting yam from Ghana to Japan

    I know Abuyanya around Kpasa. I lived there for 4months doing research. That area is known for one of the best yams you’ll find in Ghana. I was going to farm over there until I moved to US. I hope to go back one day to talk to the chief and start a commercial project over there

      Bono ahafo too is a major contributor to most of the yam on our Ghana Market today.
      If one can farm throughout the year and have stable capacity storage, I think yam farming is a solid business. People will always eat

    Hey Kekeli, I just discovered your YT channel today, have subscribed, and have been watching for 4 hours now. Very interesting 👌🏽 I am from the DRCongo, where we don’t know much about yams crop. But for being in the US for years, Yams fufu has become my favorite even though it’s very rich🙈 I would like to take this crop back home, and teach my people to like it. Could it be possible, when interviewing about the rentability of the crops, to convert your currencies into $ please, so we also have an idea of how profitable the production could be? You’re not only followed by Ghaneans. Remember that.😉
    Good Job though 🎷👌🏽

    I just saved your number. I have a friend who has just came back home there from here, and he is a chief in Kumasi. Will visit Ghana soon and learn about the yam production. It looks like it’s only one harvest/year. How many months of rain do you have there?
    What are they spraying and for what purpose? The other guy from Dubai had some terms, but I didn’t get them. May be you can start asking them to explain their lexicon for us🤷🏽‍♀️😀
    Thank you so much👌🏽🙌🏽

      We have 2 seasons. We had rain from March to July in the major season .then September till now, it’s still raining but not consistent depending on your location here. About the spray, they’re spraying weedicide to first kill the weeds before they start raising yam mounds
