Uprooting cassava disease: Scientists identify causes of two devastating crop diseases
Across the tropics, farming communities—an estimated 800 million people—rely on cassava for food and income. However, in recent decades, harvests have been decimated by rapidly spreading diseases. But there is good news for cassava breeders and farmers.
frdbr 🎥🌳I managed to plant most of the cassavas today.
The weather was great, cloudy and cool. Started to rain only at sunset.
