"In Madagascar, native Z. tenebrosa: (a) can be easily, rapidly, and cheaply cultivated in remote communities with limited connection and infrastructure; (b) are a traditionally eaten food perceived as wild, 'natural,' clean, flavorful, rich, cheap, available during seasons of low food security, and tied to local identity; (c) are high in essential micro- and macronutrients; (d) can be raised on agricultural bean host plants without greatly affecting bean production; (e) can be farmed without increasing agricultural lands or forest clearing; and (f) have a wide native range that overlaps with areas of low food security and high biodiversity, making the project potentially replicable across all of Madagascar and much of sub-Saharan Africa."
