Post-harvest physiological deterioration of cassava roots is a serious limiting factor affecting storage over even short periods of time. The resulting black pigments render the roots inedible to both humans and animals. A better understanding of the causes of this problem and methods of control ...

Cassava is among the food crops that tolerate soil acidity well; therefore, it is often planted on highly acid, unfertile soils without fertilization or liming. Nevertheless, cassava needs large quantities of P for maximum productivity. In fertilization trials at Carimagua (Llanos Orientales, Col...
A trend exists for using natural dried cassava as an animal feed. However, the technology of cassava drying is not well developed. The rate at which cassava dries when placed in the open air depends on the drying system, the relative humidity, the air temperature and the wind velocity. Particles ...
Experience acquired in the first regional trials in Colombia was used as a basis for the initial structuration of an international cooperative network to evaluate cassava cultivars. Each year, the cassava breeding section at CIAT would supply the agronomy section with 5 promising cultivars, which...
