The Jerusalem Artichoke as an Agricultural Crop

Biomass, 1984
Abstract The Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus) is an agricultural crop which is of great potential for food, production of fuels, and industrial products. This crop gives a high yield in tubers, it grows better in poor soils than most crops, and it is resistant to pests and common plant diseases as well as to cold temperatures.

Jerusalem Artichoke Productivity Modelling

1993
ABSTRACT A model describing the growth of Jerusalem artichoke and parametrized for Dutch conditions has been tested using data from 38 trials with Jerusalem artichoke in the Netherlands, France, Spain and Italy. Discrepancies between experimental data and simulation outcomes are probably due to poor simulation of the following processes: leaf area ...

Acid hydrolysis of Jerusalem artichoke for ethanol fermentation

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 1986
An excellent substrate for ethanol production is the Jerusalem artichoke (JA) tuber (Helianthus tuberosus). This crop contains a high level of inulin that can be hydrolyzed mainly to D-fructose and has several distinct advantages as an energy source compared to others. The potential ethanol yield of ca. 4678 L/ha on good agricultural land is equivalent

JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE IN THE TREATMENT OF DIABETES

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1934
The purpose of the experiments was to determine whether the carbohydrate contained in Jerusalem artichoke is more available for the nutrition of certain subjects with severe diabetes than equal quantities of other carbohydrates. Feeding experiments were carried out with two human subjects with severe diabetes and with a completely phlorhizinized dog ...
