Cassava agronomy research and adoption of improved practices in Thailand: Major achievements during the past 35 years
Cassava agronomy research in Thailand during 1994-1996 emphasized mainly erosion control, soil fertility maintenance and weed control.
Regarding soil erosion control, the planting of cassava in April, at the start of the rainy season, and harvesting in March resulted in the highest soil loss comp...

The use of farmer participatory research (FPR) in the Nippon Foundation project: Improving the sustainability of cassava-based cropping systems in Asia
During the past decade (1990-2000) the area planted to cassava in most countries in Asia has generally decreased, while production has remained stable or also decreased. Cassava yields have increased mainly in India, Indonesia and China but remained nearly the same in Malaysia, Thailand and the P...
