Book excerpt: Excerpt from Growing and Handling Sweet Potatoes in California The term seed as applied to sweet potatoes is a misnomer, just as in the case of Irish potatoes. True seed, developing from flowers and fruit, is seldom seen in the United States, although it has been known to form in southern Florida. Occasionally sweet potatoes bloom in southern California, but seed is rarely formed. However, seed has such a universal meaning among growers that it will be used in this discussion to mean the enlarged portions o-f the root, commonly known as sweet potatoes. Probably one of the limiting factors in the production of a profitable crop of sweet potatoes is the inability to secure good seed in those states where seed certification is not prao ticed. In California neither the demand for certified seed nor the acreage grown at present seems to justify certification. With pro-per precautions it is possible for the grower to select high quality seed from his own fields. The sweet potato itself consists of a root, originally a fibrous feeding root, which in the process of development has thickened for a greater or less distance from the central stem. On each such thickened root, or potato, are found four rows of lateral fibrous feeding roots, which usually disappear before the crop is mature, leaving only slight depressions where they were attached. Fro-m the neighborhood of the root scars, adventitious buds originate and under favorable growing conditions, sprouts are formed. These sprouts have an independent root system and are only weakly connected with the mother potato, fro-m which, however, they derive most of their nourishment. Until they are separated and set. In the Open field. The sweet potato has no true rest period, for the sprouts may start growing at any time under suitable moisture and temperature conditions and often do so in the field when harvesting is delayed and in the storage house in the later part of the storage season.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last four decades of the twentieth century the use of sweetpotato was diversified beyond their classification as subsistence, food security, and famine-relief crop. In developing countries they serve both as human food and for feeding livestock. In Western countries they appeal to health conscious consumers because of their nutritional aspects. The sweetpotato is very high in nutritive value, and merits wider use on this account alone. The book has 2 parts. A general one giving up-to-date information on the history, botany, cultivars, genetic engineering, propagation, diseases and pests, nutritional data and marketing; and a second part presenting data on sweetpotato growing practices in different areas of the world. The information should be useful to researchers, practitioners and crop administrators in different countries.
