Domesticated by Farmers in Benin (West Africa) (2006, background): “In West Africa, social scientists have documented an original practice called ‘domestication’ that is implemented by certain yam farmers, (Baco 2000; Dumont and Vernier 2000; Okry 2000; Houemassou Bossa 2001; Mignouna and Dansi 2003; Tostain et al. 2003; Vernier et al. 2003).”
• Traditional leafy vegetables and their use in the Benin Republic (2008, background): “In fact, central and mostly northern Benin are high yam producing and consuming zones and it is known (Dansi 2001; Mignouna and Dansi 2003 ), that pounded yam goes better with sauces of slimy consistency.”
