There is a growing global interest in consumption of yacon, Smallanthus sonchifolius (Poepp. & Endl.) H. Robinson (Asteraceae) roots, due to its medicinal and nutraceutical properties, prevention of metabolic and intestinal tract diseases besides the potencial for alternative sugar industry. There is also a growing interest in the production of yacon roots as a diversification option for family farming. Lack of information on the species? behavior, lack of local technological references and seedling availability are challenges that must be overcome. A pioneering
initiative was carried out on 2006 ? 2007, to start introducing and adapting commercial cultivation of yacon in the mountain region of Espirito Santo State, Brazil, municipality of Santa Maria de JetibÃ¡, Afonso ClÃ¡udio and Domingos Martins, communities SÃ£o Bento do GarrafÃ£o, Mata Fria and Tijuco Preto, respectively. The aim of this paper is to integrate and provide information about various aspects of that process; to demonstrate initial management practices adopted; describe historical process and to arouse interest in this nutraceutical food that can bring benefits to both farmers? families and consumers.
