对肯尼亚锡亚亚地区卢奥族食用植物进行了调查，作为民族植物学研究的一部分。 在该地区种植了52种作物;从野外收集了69种。 野生水果，地下部分，叶，真菌子实体可能是重要的锡亚亚作为膳食补充剂。 这些非耕作资源在该地区最干旱的地区特别重要，值得对其作为粮食短缺时期缓冲的作用进行评价。
Plants used for food by the Luo-speaking people of Siaya District, Kenya, were surveyed as part of a comprehensive ethnobotanical study. Fifty-two crops were observed under cultivation in the district; 69 species are gathered from the wild. Wild fruits, underground portions, leaves, and fungal fruiting bodies are probably important in Siaya as dietary supplements. These non-cultivated resources, particularly important in the driest areas of the district, warrant evaluation for their role as a buffer against periods of food shortage.
