This book fully describes small-scale processing and storage methods for root crops, particularly taro, sweet potato, and yams.  The authors emphasize methods of handling and preserving the crops that require little in the way of energy or technology, and they discuss traditional methods of storage and processing in Africa, Asia, and the Pacific.  They also describe small machines suitable for processing and highlight examples of higher-level technology.
