Summary, etc. <p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Amorphophallus paeoniifolius</em> Dennst-Nicolson, commonly known as the Elephant foot yam, is a highly potential edible aroid of Araceae family. Fresh yams are difficult to store due to their perishable nature and deteriorate in quality during storage. Therefore, making processed products <em>viz</em>., dry and fry cubes will be an alternative value added product with nutritional value. In this experiment, elephant foot yam corm cubes were stored to analyze the nutritional and antioxidant values at monthly intervals. The <em>cv</em>.,<em> </em>BCA-1 dry cubes (soaking in 2% salt followed by blanching) had the highest ascorbic acid and total phenol throughout the storage period. Highest β-carotene was observed in <em>cv</em>., IGAM-1 dry cubes (2% alum) and fry cubes (2% alum) at 0 and 13 months after storage, respectively. The <em>cv.,</em> BCA-1 had the highest starch in dry cubes (1.5% alum) and fry cubes (2% salt) at 0 and 13 months after storage, respectively. The protein and organoleptic values were the highest throughout the storage in <em>cv</em>., BCA-1, both dry and fry cubes, were from soaking in 1.5% alum and blanching.</p>
