In the past, the inhabitants of northwestern Mexico benefited from the saya plant (several species from the Amoreuxia genus), taking advantage of it for both food and medicinal purposes, and subsequently European colonizers utilized it as food, when faced with famine. Currently, some of these species have shown a decline in populations, so they are now considered to be in the NOM 059, 2010 risk category of the Ministry of the Environment and Natural Resources. Recent endeavors have provided knowledge concerning how to propagate this plant under agricultural conditions. In this work, cultivation of saya (A. palmatifida) crop was evaluated over two consecutive years, in order to compare productivity during the first year with plants obtained from direct germination of seeds under agricultural conditions, with those produced the second year from tuberous root regrowth. Greater plant productivity was found in the second year evaluation (p<0.0001), in terms of plant growth, seed production and weight of tuberous roots. In the future, it may be possible for some species from the Amoreuxia genus to have very positive social impact, if multiplication techniques for this species, as described in this work are applied, in order to rehabilitate this plant in grazing lands of northwestern Mexico and even to generate new plants.
