مستخلص: | Cassava is a major crop for food security in Nigeria and its principal processed form is gari. Gari processing practices were observed in the southwest (Oyo State) and southeast (Benue State) of Nigeria using two complementary approaches: 1) semi-quantitative surveys with processors (n=123) and 2) actual detailed measurements at processing units (n=7). Size of processing operations and type of practices differed significantly between the two States. There were also intra-State differences, influenced by ethnicity and customs. Variability of processing practices should be considered whilst seeking to improve processing productivity and introducing nutritious varieties of cassava to feed fast-growing Nigerian population. |
