A pilot-scale through circulation drier, using solar heated air, has been developed for drying cassava chips. The design of the drier system, which includes a bottom ventilated drying bin, centrifugal fan, and solar collector, is described. In the evaluation trials the variables studied were drie...

Three trials were carried out at CIAT-Palmira to quantify the effect of plot edges and useful plot size in beans. In the 1st trial (sown in Oct. 1977), the competition effect of 36 climbing bean var. associated with maize ICA H-210 in adjacent plots and the effect of the alleys on plot edges were...

The effect of triple superphosphate (TSP), band-applied at depths of 5 and 25 cm, with 0, 66, and 131 kg P/ha, on the yield (14 percent MC) of bean var. Carioca, G 4000, and ICA-Pijao (efficient in P utilization), and Puebla 152 (inefficient) was studied at CIAT`s exptl. station in Quilichao, Col...

L.A. is the largest producer of field beans in the world (34 percent - av. of 3.85 million t/yr from 1968-71), Brazil alone accounting for more than 50 percent. Productivity is low, ranging from 330-1164 kg/ha (av 600 kg). Most of the beans are grown on small farms, often in association with othe...
