description Important agronomic characteristics of common root and tuber crop production systems in the tropics are indicated for crops including cassava, yam, sweet potato, and edible aroids. Brief comments are also included on aspects that help correctly interpret the information obtained during the characterization process. The general context of agricultural production is analyzed, and within this context, the particular case of root crops, where the process of transformation into derived products, at both farm and regional levels, may condition the agronomic practices used. Energy input concentrated in 3 activities, namely land preparation, weed control, and harvesting and storage. The characterization process of production systems should be complemented with information on preparation of planting material, planting times, intercropping, and applications of chemicals. When characterizing a production system, the structure and operation of the production unit are important aspects as well as lot assignment, lot size, lot rotation, labor allocation, and use of capital and inputs. Important interactions occur between crop and animal production systems, annual and perennial crops, and perennial and food crops. Regional characteristics that also agronomically condition root crop production systems include land distribution, spatial distribution of production units, soil resources (fertility, topography), and climate. Steps to gather agronomic information are listed. (CIAT)

(CIAT) Se indican las caracteristicas agronomicas de importancia en los sistemas comunes de produccion de cultivos de raices y tuberculos en el tropico, para los cultivos de yuca, name, batata y aroideas comestibles. Se comenta brevemente sobre aspectos que ayudan a interpretar correctamente la informacion obtenida durante el proceso de caracterizacion. Se analiza el contexto general de la produccion agricola y dentro de el, el caso especifico de los cultivos de raices, donde el proceso de transformacion en productos derivados, a nivel de finca y regional, puede determinar las practicas agronomicas utilizadas. El esfuerzo se concentro en 3 actividades: preparacion de la tierra, control de malezas y cosecha y almacenamiento. El proceso de caracterizacion de los sistemas de produccion se debe complementar con informacion sobre preparacion de material de siembra, epocas de siembra, cultivo intercalado y aplicacion de productos quimicos. Al caracterizar un sistema de produccion, la estructura y la operacion de la unidad productora son aspectos importantes, al igual que la asignacion del lote, el tamano de la parcela, la rotacion de las parcelas, la asignacion de mano de obra y el uso de capital e insumos. Se presentan interacciones importantes entre los sistemas de produccion animal y de cultivos, entre los cultivos anuales y los perennes, y entre los cultivos perennes y los alimenticios. Las caracteristicas regionales que tambien determinan agronomicamente los sistemas de produccion de cultivos de raices incluyen la distribucion de la tierra, la distribucion espacial de unidades productoras, los recursos edaficos (fertilidad, topografia) y el clima. Se enumeran los pasos para recolectar informacion agronomica.
