Dietary values of wild and semi-wild edible plants in southern Ethiopia

African Journal of Food, Agriculture, Nutrition and Development, 2013
Ethnobotanical studies have shown that many wild plant species are sporadically consumed alongside regular food sources in developing countries. Many plants of wild and semi-wild origin are consumed in the remote parts of southern Ethiopia. Dietetic values of Ethiopia’s non-crop food plants, though important in prevention of malnutrition and ...
