CHAPTER ONE 1.0     Introduction Manihot esculenta with common names ‘‘cassava’’, is a woody shrub of the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae native to South America. It is extensively cultivated as an annual crop in tropical and subtropical regions for its edible starchy tuberous root, a major source of carbohydrates. Cassava can also be... Continue Reading

Cassava is produced in a large quantity in Nigeria. One of the products emerging  from its processing has turned out to be a major staple food in the nation, which is ‘garri’.  Due to insufficient and inadequate processing equipment; cassava has been susceptible to  wastage and ‘garri’ production has been reduced in scale, thereby...
