A series of trials were carried out using cassava. Crop growth rate increased with leaf area up to LAI 4; root growth rate increased up to LAI 3-3.5, then declined. LAI is determined by leaf size, leaf formation rate and individual leaf life. Leaf size reached a max 4 mo after planting and then d...

Cassava is the 4th most important source of food energy in the tropics. More than 2/3 of the total production of this crop is used as food for humans, with lesser amounts being used for animal feed and industrial purposes. The ingestion of high levels of cassava has been associated with chronic c...

Forty different cultivars of cassava were grown in unreplicated plots at a plant population of 20,000 plants/ha in fertile soil. Harvests were taken at 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 mo after planting 18 varieties. The characteristics of the 2 highest yielding varieties, M Colombia 113 (66 tons/ha) and M Col...

Three varieties in one cassava trial and 5 in another were planted in a sytematic density experiment, which showed that optimum plant density for root yield changes with plant age. Some varieties showed a pronounced optimum plant population whereas others showed a flat-topped response curve. Redu...
