| description | In L.A., food uses determine the demand for cassava, especially in rural areas, because of problems in marketing this highly perishable crop. Production is stagnant due apparently to the lack of growth in demand. A significant growth market for cassava products is needed; e.g., the alcohol program in Brazil. Outside of Brazil, market growth will come in the animal feed sector but to exploit these markets competitively, increasing technology will be required. (CIAT) |

(CIAT) En America Latina, la utilizacion de los alimentos determina la demanda de yuca, especialmente en las areas rurales, debido a los problemas en el mercadeo de este cultivo altamente perecedero. La produccion se ha estancado debido a la falta de crecimiento de la demanda. Se necesita un significante crecimiento del mercado para los productos de yuca, p. ej., el programa de alcohol de Brasil. Fuera de este pais, este crecimiento provendra del sector de alimentacion para animales, pero se requerira un incremento en la tecnologia para explotarlo competitivamente.
