| description | The current status of cassava cultivation in Brazil is analyzed; aspects covered are the distribution of production, cultivation systems, main uses given to the crop, and problems encountered in the different geographic regions of the country (north, NE, SE, south, and central-west). An overview is also provided of the current structure of research and its potential in the areas of plant breeding and germplasm use; an historical overview is given and the status of different research projects is detailed. Conclusions indicate that production constraints vary from one region to another, but in most of them, cassava is grown without the use of improved technology. This lack of adoption reflects in part the lack of credit facilities and the limited market due to the reduced no. of products, the restricted demand, and unfavorable competition with products favored with the national agricultural policy. The creation of the Centro Nacional de Pesquisa de Mandioca e Fruticultura unified plant breeding research at the national level. (CIAT) |

(CIAT) Se analiza el estado actual del cultivo de la yuca en Brasil, cubriendo aspectos de la distribucion de la produccion, los sistemas de cultivo y los principales usos y problemas encontrados en las diferentes regiones geograficas del pais (Norte, Nordeste, Sudeste, Sur y Centro-Oeste). Tambien se proporciona una vision de la estructura actual de investigacion y su potencial en las areas de fitomejoramiento y utilizacion de germoplasma; se presenta un recuento historico y se detalla el estado en que se encuentran diferentes proyectos de investigacion. Se concluye que las limitaciones a la produccion varian de region a region, pero en su mayoria la yuca se cultiva sin el uso de tecnologias mejoradas. Esta falta de adopcion refleja un poco la falta de estimulo crediticio y la limitacion del mercado, debido al reducido no. de productos, la restriccion de la demanda y la competencia desigual con productos mas favorecidos por la politica agricola nacional. La creacion del Centro Nacional de Pesquisa de Mandioca e Fruticultura unifico los trabajos de mejoramiento genetico a nivel nacional.
