Feasibility of a Super Crop
+0

In my setting there is a civilization that has a decisive advantage in a fundamentally agrarian world; a crop of exceptional yield and nutritional value.
Would it be feasible for a plant to have edible and nutritionally valuable tuber roots (or corm, whatever's more botanically feasible), stems, leaves and fruit? Essentially can the whole plant give you all of your necessary plant based vitamins and be more efficient in terms of growth rate and yield.
Note: The region is well watered and has a long growing season
