In Indonesia, annual growth rates for cassava production and yield from 1961 to 2000 were 0.81% and 1.35%, respectively. However, the harvested area decreased at an average annual rate of 0.61%. The average yield of about 12 tonnes of fresh roots/ha is much below the potential yield of 20 to 40 t...

The concept and methodology used in the transfer of technology (TOT) have undergone changes over the years corresponding to farmers' needs, and as a result, farmer participatory TOT has become more relevant, especially in complex diversified risk-prone (CDR) farming systems. The TOT in cassava, w...

Soil degradation, both due to soil erosion and nutrient removal, is a major problem in cassava fields. Most of the existing management technologies that have been developed have had little success in adoption. Some of the reasons are that the technology developed is technically oriented, based on...

Nutritional studies of cassava have shown that in high-P acid laterite soils, there was no response to P application during four years of consecutive cropping. In low-P soil, even though cassava initially responded to 100 kg P2O5/ha, the response gradually declined. The optimum economic dose of P...

Annual growth of cassava production in the main cassava production areas during the last five years seems to have kept pace with the increase in population, while the harvested area of cassava increased only 0.6% annually. Of the total cassava produced, about 54% is used for human food, 28% for i...

Over the period 1994-1996, seven batches of seeds and two of meristem tissue cultures were evaluated and selected. As important as root yield is the trait starch content (or dry matter content) if a clone is to be accepted as a starch cultivar. At the time of reporting a number of clones have bee...
