My new plant. Ideal for preppers purposes.

I've just ordered a plant which is ideal for preppers purposes. It's Topinambur (Jerusalem artichoke, Helianthus tuberosus).

It can be applied in many ways.  The main two are :

1. You can dry its green top, mix and make briquettes or pellets.

2. You can eat or sell the bottom part.

More : It is very useful when dealing with bees. It is rich source of inulin which is healthy when eaten and pharmaceutical industry is interested in. It can be eaten by diabetics due to lack of starch.

Here you can find some recipes.

Here some about the plant.

Here some info about inulin.

I plan to plant them in the area of 100 sq. m. in the first year to see how it really works and... tastes :)
