| सारांश: | The three common varieties of cassava Manihot esculenta Cranz, IITA, IAR&T and local Odongbo, were grown in Ife agro-climatic zone to find out if there were significant differences in varietal yield and mean weight of cassava components. The mean weight of unpeeled tubers, peeled tubers, peels (bark) pressed flour, shaft and mean weight of gari were taken. All weights are per stand. The processing was done at the University farm labour rate. Cash budgeting and production, trading, profit and loss accounts of the enterprise were also prepared. Results showed that there were no significant differences in the yield parameters among the three varieties. The statistics also indicated that agricultural production of cassava is profitable but the processing of cassava tubers into gari is not economical under the present technology thus a more efficient processing method is highly desirable. |
