Sustainable Cassava: Production, Processing, Trade, Consumption and Waste Management Strategies presents viable approaches to promote sustainability in this globally important crop, enabling future generations to benefit. Providing key insights to enhance production while limiting environmental impact, this book provides readers with foundational understanding of growing and utilizing Cassava. Cassava (Manihot Mill. species Euphorbiaceae) is a staple crop in tropical and subtropical regions of the world with diverse food and non-food value. It is a principal energy source but may be fortified to provide improved nutritional status for consumers as well as for the production of value-added products. With the growing human population, there is a need to increase global production and efficiency in trade, diversify and ensure safe consumption, maximize utilization of all cassava processing wastes, and add value to the cassava production chain through sustainable practices Presented in three parts, the first addresses cassava diversity and distribution, sustainable production and cultivation practices, and root processing innovations of the crop. Cassava trade policies and economic value chains, food safety and use of cassava, and agro-industrial cassava products are addressed in the second part. The third part focuses on bioeconomy aspects, cassava waste quality assessment, toxicology, sanitary practices, environmental risk assessment as well as sustainable management strategies for cassava waste using biotechnological and industrial advances. Addressing the need for a unified and standardized approach for the trade, management, and utilization of cassava genetic resources, finished products, and cassava processing wastes, the book also explores policy and governance structure for addressing environmental and economic issues emanating from their use. In the lens of globalization, climate change adaptation and mitigation, and sustainable development, the contents of this book will promote the adoption of novel and advanced practices in cassava cultivation and production, harvest, use, and waste recovery or reduction and contribute to global cooling efforts. Presents best practices and ideas from around the world, including technological advances for Cassava production and use Focuses on sustainability throughout the lifecycle Provides insights translatable to other tuber crops for further enhanced sustainable food security

This practical guide applies FAO's ecosystem-based model of agriculture, which aims at improving productivity while conserving natural resources, to cassava. The guide shows how "Save and Grow" can help cassava growers avoid the risks of intensification, while realizing the crop's potential for producing higher yields, alleviating hunger and rural poverty, and contributing to national economic development.

This report presents the results of the implementation of the GBEP indicators to two key bioenergy pathways in Viet Nam: cassava-based ethanol and biogas at household, farm and industrial levels. The environmental, social and economic impacts of these two pathways are discussed, and recommendations are provided on how to improve their sustainability, efficiency and competitiveness. This work provided Viet Nam with an understanding of how to establish the means of a long-term, periodic monitoring of its domestic bioenergy sector based on the GBEP indicators. Such periodic monitoring would enhance the knowledge and understanding of this sector and more generally of the way in which the contribution of the agricultural and energy sectors to national sustainable development could be evaluated. The implementation of the GBEP indicators in Viet Nam also provided a series of lessons learnt about how to apply them as a tool for sustainable development and how to enhance their practicality.

The growing global demand for food, feed and bio-based renewable material is changing the conditions for agricultural production worldwide. At the same time, revolutionary achievements in the field of biosciences are contributing to a transition whereby bio-based alternatives for energy and materials are becoming more competitive. Creating Sustainable Bioeconomies explores the prospects for biosciences and how its innovation has the potential to help countries in the North (Europe) and the South (Africa) to move towards resource efficient agriculture and sustainable bioeconomies. Throughout the book, the situations of Europe and Sub-Saharan Africa will be compared and contrasted, and opportunities for mutual learning and collaboration are explored. The chapters have been written by high profile authors and deal with a wide range of issues affecting the development of bioeconomies on both continents. This book compares and contrasts the situations of these two regions as they endeavour to develop knowledge based bioeconomies. This volume is suitable for those who are interested in ecological economics, development economics and environmental economics. It also provides action plans assisting policy-makers in both areas to support the transition to knowledge based and sustainable bioeconomies.

Growing cassava, a starchy root crop that provides a significant amount of carbohydrates for millions of people in tropical and subtropical countries, is what is meant by "cassava farming." Cassava, or Manihot esculenta, is a key food staple in many regions across the world, particularly in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Some fundamentals of cassava growing are as follows: 1. Cassava does not yield viable seeds, so it is normally cultivated via stem cuttings or planting stakes. These cuttings are planted by farmers in carefully prepared fields with good drainage. 2. Cassava plants can be harvested anywhere from 8 to 24 months after planting, depending on the cultivar and environmental factors. When the plant is ripe, the root is collected for human consumption. In various parts of the world, the cassava plant's leaves are also consumed. 3. Cassava's adaptability means it can serve many purposes. It can be eaten raw, cooked, steamed, fried, or processed into flour, starch, or tapioca. It's a flexible crop that provides sustenance for many of people. 4. Nutritional Value: Cassava is a decent source of carbohydrates but lacks large levels of key elements like protein and vitamins. It's great for keeping you going, but you still need to eat a variety of things to stay healthy. 5. Economic Importance: Cassava farming can be economically important for both small-scale and commercial producers. It's important to the economy and food supply of many areas because of this. 6. Low yields and susceptibility to pests and illnesses are two problems that might arise during cassava production. It's also vulnerable to dry weather. 7. Cassava root contains potentially poisonous cyanogenic chemicals, which can be removed after processing. This processing may include peeling, soaking, and cooking to make cassava suitable for food. 8. There are many different types of cassava, some of which are bitter and need to be processed thoroughly before they are acceptable to eat, while others are sweet and may be eaten straight from the stove. Many people in poor nations rely on income from cassava farming to ensure their families' nutritional wellbeing and financial stability. It's a lifeline crop for a lot of people, and it might help solve food insecurity issues in places where it's cultivated. Many agricultural and development groups, however, are focused on finding solutions to the crop's problems and increasing its yields.
