In Europe, America and recently Asia, cassava product has become of high demand. Why is this? Because they are needed extensively in the industries. Quite a number of products in your home and kitchen would not have been possible without cassava. And recent scientific discoveries have shown that cassava can be used to replace so many chemical alternatives in order to make the world a better and greener place. This is why it is time you should consider starting a cassava export business as Nigeria is the largest producer of cassava in the world - over 10 million metric tonnes strong. Here are three major ways developed countries make use of cassava.

ADHESIVES
Most of the things we use in our homes and office like furniture and paper where made in small bits and then merged together. Many of the industries in developed countries like the US and UK make use of cassava starch to produce adhesives that are used in paper, corrugated cardboard, furniture, and plastic industries. Adhesives are also used in the making of re-moistening gums for postage stamps and envelopes. In the metal making industry, starch is used as an adhesive for binding sand grains.

LIVESTOCK FEEDS
Animals and livestock are important to the world ecosystem and feeding. They produce milk, meat, wool and other essentials we humans can’t do without. Animal breeders in Europe and America make use of cassava products like flakes, pellets, chips, cubes and flours to feed their farm animal in order to get top yield. This is because these cassava products are cheap and deliver good results at the end of the farming period. This is why cassava product from Nigeria have become of high demands for farmers in countries like Germany, France, US, UK and the Netherlands.

FOOD INDUSTRY
The food industry in the industrialized world cannot do without cassava. As populations begin to explode, there is need to produce quality and affordable food. This is why the world is now focusing on acquiring the Nigerian cassava because it is cheap, in large quantity and very effective. Cassava product is used in the European and American food industry for the making of composite flour which is used in the making of bread and other products originally manufactured from wheat.

Cassava is also used in the making of glucose and alcohol which are an essential commodity in many industries from pharmaceuticals to food canning. Cassava product is also very useful in the confectioneries for the making of a large variety of food items including ice cream, jelly beans, jams, sweets and gums. Recently, many fruit juice manufacturers are now beginning to replace sucrose with dextrose, which is a product of cassava. The latter is preferred to the former due to the absence of the dangerous sulfur-dioxide, and because it helps preserve the original flavor of the fruit and reduces the tendency of it becoming crystallized into sugar.
Cassava product is also used to produce caramel which is used as coloring agent in food, confectioneries and liquor; because it is cheaper than other alternatives and provides greater coloration.
