Earth almond or chufa grows in the United States
A long excerpt discusses the earth almond or chufa, its introduction to Washington and spread in the United States since 1863, its growth habits, and cultivation practices. It notes three foot stalks, edible tubers like chestnut or coconut, and a use as cattle feed and hog fattening. Field trials compared to sweet potatoes, peanuts, and cow peas show hogs readily eat chufa and fatten efficiently.
