The objective of this study is to compare the chemical composition and nutritional quality of potato, yam, cassava, sweet potato and taro. For this purpose, the rats of wistar strain, weighing on average 67.5±2.94 g, were fed diets based on these starchy foods. 30 growing rats were used for the experiment, with 6 rats per diet containing herring fish as protein source (10 %). Energy value ranges from 137.44±2.40 Kcal/100 g (yam) to 396.15±0.01 Kcal/100 g (cassava). Lipids contents are between 0.08±0.01 % DM (potato) and 1.07±0.01 % DM (cassava).

The low availability of cationic micronutrients such as iron (Fe) in alkaline soils can limit the production of phytomass, the production of ears and the nutritional quality of green corn. The objective was to evaluate the influence of Fe concentration, via leaf, on phytomass, grain production and the Fe accumulations in the leaves and green grains of corn growing in alkaline soil. The experiment was carried out in a randomized block design, with five Fe concentration (0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 g L -1) and four blocks totaling 20 experimental plots.
