SOME INFORMATION ON CASSAVA
Cassava or yuca is a species of native plants of Central America and South America, especially the southwestern Amazon Basin.
Its name comes from a Tupi myth which tells how the goddess Mani, white skin, established his home (father) in the root of the plant – hence the words : Hands-goose and Tapioca – tapioca being a manioc derivative.
It was widely used by the settlers because of its high resistance to drought, its high profitability, but it was also to feed the slaves cheaply.
cassava, imported from Brazil in the sixteenth century, became in the & rsquo; a few decades the staple food of many African populations
Cassava is particularly well suited to the soil and climate of Africa, and it is consumed today in sub-Saharan Africa.
Indeed, Cassava can simply poor soils and very low rainfall. In addition, it can be harvested all year. Cassava also holds the record for highest efficiency in calories harvested per hectare, among all food crops except sugar cane.
There are two varieties of cassava, one of which can be fatal, because of the presence of cyanide in the roots : that is why it should be washed well with water the tubers before preparing.
- Sweet Cassava: grown for local consumption in its tubers;
- Bitter Cassava: mainly used for the preparation of starch and other derivatives.

Global cassava production is expected to decrease slightly 2017, to reach 278 Mt, after two decades of uninterrupted growth. According to FAO, this is due to droughts, to lower prices and to policy changes.
The manioc fait partie des cultures de base to s & rsquo; étendues être très rapidement to & rsquo; Montgomery et world here représente the & rsquo; une des plus importantes sources of calories in les régions tropicales, after rice and maize, says FAO
According to FAO, Central Africa provides one third of all agricultural cassava production in Africa. The largest producers are Nigeria, Ghana, the Democratic Republic of Congo. In Cameroon, for example, cassava is widely grown and harvested throughout the year as an annual.
