Journal Article 1994

Autor: Mahungu, N.M. Dixon, A. Kumbira, J.

The major constraints to stable production of cassava in Africa are diseases, insects, mites, weeds, soil and agronomic limitations and socio-economic factors. Of the economic diseases, African cassava mosaic, bacterial blight, and anthracnose are the most important. The green spider mite and cas...

A better understanding of the factors that contribute to low cassava yields in farmers’ fields is required to guide the formulation of cassava intensification programs. Using a boundary line approach, we analysed the contribution of soil fertility, pest and disease infestation and farmers’ cultiv...

In the dry season 1997-1998, unusual damage was observed on cassava at M'vuazi INERA research station (Lat. 5°25'S, Long. 14°54'E, Alt. 465m asl) in the Bas-Congo province, DR Congo (DRC). The damage was first attributed to cassava green mite (CGM), but subsequent observations and literature sear...

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the feeding and economic value of cassava starch by-products as source of energy in diets for growing fattening pigs. Cassava starch by-products were incorporated in the diets at 0 (treatment 1, control), 10 (treatment 2), 20 (treatment 3) and 30% (treatmen...

Starch separated from eleven sweet potato varieties was subjected to heat moisture treatment (HMT) at 30% moisture and 110°C for 3 hours. Following HMT, there were no significant changes in physicochemical properties of the starches. This was attributed to limited moisture content (30%) to influe...

A cassava pulverizer was fabricated and tested for starch extraction from cassava at Masinda Cassava Starch Cooperative Society in Malawi. When tested, the pulverizer increased the starch extraction percentage from cassava by 16.9% as compared to grating only and it showed that these results were...
