ANNUAL EFFECTIVE DOSE ESTIMATION DUE TO THE NATURAL RADIOACTIVITY IN YAM TUBERS (Dioscorea rotundata) CULTIVATED IN NORTHCENTRAL NIGERIA

Yam tubers (Dioscorea rotundata) and soil from commercially cultivated farmland in northcentral Nigeria were collected and investigated for their natural radioactivity content using a 3” × 3” NaI(Tl) gamma detector. Average activities of 238U, 232Th and 40K in the investigated farm soil were 38.13±3...
