| Description | The kocho yield of enset, in terms of weight and energy, under different crop establishment methods, was investigated at Areka Research Centre, southern Ethiopia, and compared with the yields of other main starch crops grown in the country. The maximum fresh weights of kocho after fermentation from enset plants transplanted once (Tl), twice (T2) or thrice (T3) were 25.9, 54.1 and 37.1 kg $plant^{−1}$, respectively. When yield was expressed per unit of space and time, the maximum fresh yields of fermented kocho (70% moisture) from Tl, T2 and T3 were 19, 33 and 26 t $ha^{−1}$ $y^{−1}$, respectively. |
