Horticulture production in conditions of Sub-Sahara Africa

This paper was written to provide the literature review on the topic of horticultural production in Namibia or in neighboring countries, with a focus on vegetable species. To suggest a prospective representative vegetable species from the study area, which could have production potential in the Czech Republic. Four chosen cultivars (Metro, Nakare, Bira and Shidimba) from the Cowpea (Vigna uinguiculata L Walp) species were experimentally tested in conditions of the Czech Republic. They were grown naturally extensively with no fertilizers, herbicides or pesticides used. They're morphological parameters were then recorded and laboratory analyzed using ANOVA and three valuables [flavonoids, total antioxidants capacity (TAC) and polyphenols] were determined using different methods with the spectrophotometry.
