Leaf area of cocoyam ( Xanthosoma sagittifolium ) can be estimated quickly and accurately using the mathematical relationship between linear measurements of leaves which relate leaf area (Y) to the product of length (L) and breadth (B).The most accurate relationship is Y = K (LB) with K = 0.923 + 0.004.
