Chufa is a Spanish word meaning ground almond, "chufa", has been called earth almond, groundnut, tigernut, duck potato and edible rush. We know it to be a tuber that grows underground on the fibrous roots of a nut plant. These chufa tubers are used for seed to propagate chufas. For many years chufas have been cultivated for food and drink for men and planted for hogs. In the last 50 years it has been realized that chufas are an excellent winter food source for wild turkeys. The tubers contain protein, carbohydrates, sugars, and lots of oil and fiber.

In the United States today the primary use of chufas as a crop is to attract and feed wild game, particularly wild turkeys.
