I want to go into cassava processing into Garri next year. My production target is 10tons of Garri which will require 40tons of fresh cassava per day. I would like to ask the following questions :

1. Where is the best place to site it so that the raw materials can be sourced in quantity at a good price considering Garri does not require cassava with too much starch

2. Someone i consulted on this forum told me marketing 10tons (200bags) of Garri daily is difficult, is it true? Although I intend targeting mile 12 market

The rural small holders farmers are complaining of no market for their cassava.
The main user of cassava eg the distilleries, starch processors are complaining of no raw material.
What could have been the issue?
The Distilleries and other cassava factories are in need of cassava with high starch content to produce starch.
The farmers, majority whom are smallholders are planting the low starch contents of Agbagba, Oko Iyawo etc.
The lower starch contents of cassava are mainly used in the production of garri, akpu or fufu and tapioca.Hence the market is vwry small
For farmers to have more productivity in terms of tonnage yield, market access and more money in their pockets, theirs need to experiments with new variety
The new variety is TME 419. It gives higher tonnage and higher starch contents
The yield can be up to 20 -40 tonnes per hectare depending on management
This variety is still limited in circulation. Its only few farmers that have access to it and is already using it.
This is the preferred variety in all the cassava using factories.
I will therefore encourage the would be farmers to seek for the better variety when ever they wants to plant.
A bundle of TME can be purchased for N400. 60 bundles will be required for an hectare. You can get the link through IITA or the farmers that has bought from IITA or some source
For the markets of cassava of high starch contents, Thai farm in Ososa,Green Tech in Agbara and lots more
Cassava are sold according to starch content. Walk into any of the companies with the sample of freshly extracted cassava, the test will be carried out right there and you know at what price to supply per tonnage
pls i need your experience on this. I heard from someone that TME 419 is yellowish in colour which doesn't favour cassava flour(elubo) except for garri and others only? is it true?

TME 419 is rejected by the garri processors because it has too much water content.

It's highly favoured by the starch processing factories

Yellow cassava for gari is not the same as TME 419

I want to understand you mean cabstar.

1 cabstar of cassava or 3 pick ups is expected from an acre of cassava

Could be more
Could be less
Depending on so many factors as

* The no of cassava stem planted on the acre
* The no of stem that survive and grow to produce tubers

* The quantity of nutrient in the soil which feed the tubers

* Quantity of rainfall or water supplied to the plant
* Pest and diseases control
* Weed control management
