• Verify botanical classification as Dioscorea spp. (yams) via supplier certificates to avoid misclassification as sweet potatoes
• Ensure pellets are solely dried without additives; provide processing documentation to confirm suitability only for further processing
• Comply with USDA APHIS import permits for tubers; watch for phytosanitary issues like pests in pellet shipments
