Growth environment of yam
It grows on hillsides, valleys and forests at an altitude of150-1500m, in thickets or weeds beside streams and roadsides. Dioscorea is a short-day and warm-loving crop. Optimum temperature for seedling growth 15-20℃. The optimum growth temperature is 25-28℃, and the growth is slow below 20℃.
It is suitable to grow in loose, fertile and deep soil, but flat species and block species can also grow in shallow and sticky soil. Dioscorea opposita is drought-tolerant, but not waterlogging-tolerant, so it is not suitable for planting in soil with too shallow or too humid groundwater level.
