Although as much as 50% of all cassava is produced in small farm, multiple cropping systems, most cassava research has been monocrop oriented. DEC abstract (PN-AAJ-140)
The program is a TA Bureau field service project that provides a contractual mechanism for AID to respond to requests for short-term services in grain technology.1 The goals and purposes to be served within a particular country are formulated by the concerned LDC, USAID, and regional bureau.1 The program is a continuation of a Kansas State University contract.2

When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate.
Axis: years in documents. The start year comes from design document year; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
A few documents to read first. Each opens in the side panel, with the PDF to download.
