Fresh Elephant Yam (Suran) from India is a premium quality edible tuber sourced from fertile regions such as Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Odisha. Available seasonally from October to March, our Elephant Yam is offered peeled or unpeeled in hygienically cleaned 10–15 kg mesh bags or corrugated boxes, with vacuum packaging options for peeled tubers upon request. Cultivated under optimal organic or conventional practices, these yams boast uniform size, minimal blemishes, and a firm texture, making them ideal for culinary use, traditional medicine, or industrial processing. With rich fiber, potassium, and antioxidant content, these export-quality tubers are pre-cooled to maintain freshness and extend shelf life up to 2-3 weeks under controlled temperatures.
