The Federal Government has revealed its plans to adopt technology in introducing high yielding varieties for cassava in order to add value to the commodity.
Nigeria is the world’s leading producer of cassava despite its low yield of below 10mt/ha, compared to other countries such as Thailand.
The Director Federal Department of Agriculture, Mrs Karima Babaginda, said the country has the potential of having good varieties that could give more than 40mt/ha.
