| Abstract: | Sweet (low cyanide) and bitter (high cyanide) varieties of cassava are compared from the viewpoint of their production, processing and consumption in Nigeria. With this information, the costs and benefits of breeding higher yielding sweet varieties are calculated. A new processing method, currently in use in one region of Nigeria, is examined for its likely impact on the demand for sweet cassava. |
