ISHS Acta Horticulturae 380: Symposium on Tropical Root Crops in a Developping Economy

IMPACT OF INTEGRATED CASSAVA PROJECTS AMONG SMALL-SCALE FARMERS IN SELECTED LATIN AMERICAN COUNTRIES

Authors:   G. Henry, R. Best
Abstract:
The identification, introduction, and development of cassava drying technology has led to a more stable and wider cassava market in several important cassava-growing regions in Latin America. It has also encouraged small-scale cassava farmers to increase both cassava cultivation and production using improved technologies. This paper describes integrated cassava production and drying projects and the results of a survey on the impact which the establishment of cassava drying plants has had on the adoption of improved cassava production technologies.
