Conteúdo: | Cassava is a root crop widely cultivated throughout the lowland tropics where it is estimated serve as a staple food for over 200 million people (Cousery and Halliday, 1974). Much of this cassava is grown in subsistence agricultural systems without the use of chemical fertilizers. The crop has a well-earned reputation for being able to produce small but acceptable amounts of edible carbohydrate on soils which are too poor to sustain the growth of other staple crops. In addition, cassava appears to be more drought tolerant than many other crops species(Cock and Howeler, 1978). Frequently, in shifting agricultural systems cassava is used to extract what little chemical fertility has been left by other crosp, before the land is returned to bush fallow.
