Conteúdo: | Because of the potential of cassava as cheap source of starch for food and the industry and the current interest in its use as source of alcohol for energy, there is a demand for a crash program to improve production. The low average yield of 5.7 tons/ha is partly due to inferior genetic makeup of local "varieties". The breeding program nust therefore rely very heavily on foreign introductions. One of the immediate solutions for improvement is the introduction of high-yielding varieties from countries where selection has been in progress for many years. These introductions will be used as a source of germlasm for breeding and/or for commercial plantings.
