Inspecting yam stored in a barn at least once a week helps to prevent mouldiness, remove sprouts and rotten tubers. During storage, yams may sprout or start to rot due to changes in temperature, humidity or mechanical damage.

Inspections can also help to identify and control any pest attacks that may occur, preventing further damage to the yams.
