  rdf:value "An erect, glabrous herb with a slender stem and ovate oblong leaves 10-15 x 3-10 cm reaching up to 1-1.5 m in height, and with a shallow root system and rhizomes penetrating more deeply in the soil. It provides starch used in jellies and pastes and is often part of infant or invalid food because it is highly digestible. The starch is also used as a base for face powders and in certain types of glue. It counteracts insect stings and also has several medicinal uses. A fibrous debris from the rhizomes is fed to cattle."@en ;
