Product Description

Cassava, also known as manioc, yuca or tapioca, is a shrub with tuberous roots. It is the third source of food calories in tropical countries after rice and maize.

Cassava is used in both human and animal food, in many industrial sectors, particularly in the form of starch, and more recently to produce ethanol.

Africa contributes to more than half of global supply, with Nigeria on top, representing more than a third of African production alone (around *5 Mt); it is also the largest world producer by far.
