    To clear up confusion in the nomenclature of root vegetables, a true yam (as seen in the video) belongs to the Family: Dioscoreaceae. The "yam" in north American language refers to an orange sweet potato which belongs to Family: Convolvulaceae. The "yam" in NewZealand language is actually oca (Oxalis tuberosa). Hope that helps.

      Would be interesting if you were able to do a video where you collect some salt from rocks or wherever. Which in return you could saltbae onto the yams or whatever in a later video.

      It's possible technically. In arid areas if you remove the trees and raise the water table, dissolved salts rise to the surface and concentrate when the water evaporates. I've previously seen a salt like crystal form in the mud I mixed when it dries but it didn't taste like salt. Thanks.

    I've eaten yams from the wild before but had never properly cultivated them in a cage like this (pigs usually eat the ones I've planted before). They can get bigger than these too, the largest yam on record was 275 kg grown in India. They have more energy than calories weight for weight than potatoes and can be eaten as a staple food. Also, you don't need to clear forest to grow them as they use the trees themselves for scaffolding to climb into the sunlight.

    Revisiting this video, it really hits home why and how humans developed to function in groups, rather than alone. Because yeah, he CAN do all of this stuff by himself, but look at how much time and effort it takes to set up one yam enclosure, to forage leaf litter for compost, make fire, make storage pots. You're constantly spending calories to make them. Even one additional person is a game changer.

    One of my favorite aspects about this channel is it's consistency. This channel, at 8.3 million subscribers is just as it was at 3 million, and the same as it was at 500 thousand, all the way to how it was at 20,000 when I first found this channel. That is the mark of a channel that has found it's niche and fit into it perfectly. Also (as shown by the success of this channel) it is very, very good at putting out content that appeals to and captivates a general audience, while at the same time being informative, and original. I hope everyone who watches can recognize the talent and skill that this channel is endowed with.

      I mean, cultivating yams could provide necessary calories.
      On average, yams (not sweet potatoes) weigh 2.5-5kg (5.5-11lbs), containing 2950 to 5900 kilocalories.
      Assuming he is off average height and weight (although maybe heavier with those muscles), he would need ~3200 calories a day to mantain his bodyweiggt with a very active lifestyle, such as building structures outdoors and cultivating yams.
      Even if only 1 harvest of yams could occur each year, and assuming each bulb planned produces 1.5 yams on average with an average weight of 3.75 kg, only 176 bulbs would need to be planted.

    People wondering why they love these videos? Deep inside we have a dream of running from the rusty city, from the office work, from noisy parties. Sometime we want to breath fresh air, eat simple things like yams, casavas and such, we don't have to worry about life. But it's just we can't fulfill the dream ourselves, so here we are, watching others fullfill the dream for us that's why.

  • @samstewart4444
    @samstewart4444 6 років тому +13

    When my family first moved to rural West Virginia I would see stacks of tires with a small plant growing on top. These are potato "trees." A piece of potato is planted in the ground and when the plant is taller than the width of a tire, a tire is placed over the plant and filled with soil. As the plant continues to grow upward, more tires are added. This process exploits the fact that if soil is placed against the stem of a potato plant, it will produce tubers. In the fall the tires are removed to harvest the tubers. Potato farmers, of course, do not use tires, but instead use a plow to stack soil against the stems, a process called hilling.

      just palm/animal fat. palm oi; can be an expensive process but it keeps as well as olive, and for cooking animal fat will do just fine though you gotta heat it more and bugs love the shit so it'd be a much situational thing. though that also means if he oversalts it it can stay fresh longer and stayed in a clay pot when he's not using it.

      You call them steamed yams despite the fact that they're obviously grilled.

      *Kimberly* actually snails are hermaphrodite so they are both genders. (When they mate they fertilize the partner and are fertilized by the partner as well).
      It's impossible for us to know what gender that snail indentify in.
