Combination of side grafting technique and informal germplasm exchange system in non-irrigated mango orchards in Thailand
In April 1983 a branch of CIAT's Cassava Program was established in Bangkok, Thailand, to help Asian national cassava programs utilize CIAT technology more directly; CIAT's main involvement is in germplasm utilization and development, training, and communications. Sexual seeds have been the major...
En abril de 1983, se establecio una rama del Programa de Yuca del CIAT en Bangkok, Tailandia, para ayudar a los programas nacionales de yuca en Asia a utilizar la tecnologia del CIAT mas directamente; el principal papel del CIAT es el desarrollo y utilizacion de germoplasma, capacitacion y comuni...
The different alternatives for disease control in cassava, reported as efficient and that could be taken into account when designing technological packages for cassava production, are summarized. These are cultu-ral control (crop rotation, planting on furrows, elimination of crop resi-dues, dista...
The low cassava yields obtained in L.A. at present are the result of a complex of problems: 1) deficient quality of planting material, which results in low sprouting, poor rooting and little initial vigor; 2) inadequate land preparation and planting systems; 3) control systems for pests and disea...
