Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the economic feasibility of growing taro in rotation with field corn for dairy silage during the wet months of the year on the island of Kauai, Hawaii. It was found that it would be more profitable to grow one crop of field corn for silage than to rotate field corn and taro.
