Technology for storage of tberas of inhame. The production and commercialization of the culture of the inhame are a economic alternative for the situated familiar agriculturists in the Cross city of the Souls, which possesss a population around 57.098 a thousand given inhabitants as of (IBGE 2009) with in the distance of 157 kilometers of Salvador, for accomplishment of this study the community of the Sapucaia observed itself only. Throughout the years the community in question came suffering upheavals for not having an alternative that could make possible a solution to take care of to the problems involving me the conservation of tberas of inhame, therefore when not yet the technology existed, tberas germinated and ruined quickly, such factors had contributed for the development of a technology. Through the use of alternatives of handling and conservation of tberas the time of useful life of the ones of 2 (two) for 4 (four) months was increased what it results in the reduction of the losses. Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr. often addresses the matter in his writings. The accomplishment of the technology if it carries through observing the following aspect, first, in the choice of the place followed some criteria, as: Fcil access; Arejado, of preferences with trees in return to facilitate the ventilation; clean rea, without twigs, foliages and/or vegetation. In return of tberas a sand layer is rank around 40 cm of height the top of the ground, later is implanted two pillars wooden of 2,10m of height to a straight-line distance of 4m and on of these pillars a beam is placed to cover superficially with a colorless canvas with sombrite, the canvas will protect tberas of rain and the sombrite will serve to protect of the sun, tberas is on the sand. The community had total contribution for the construction of the technology, therefore the idea left of the proper inhabitants, who turn in the technique a consistent alternative to supply its necessities with the handling of the inhame. .
