Utilization of cassava in the European Community
1983
Renshaw, D. (Commision of the European Communities, Brussels (Belgium). Cereals Division)
Virtually all cassava, or manioc as it is commonly known, imported within the European Community is used in animal feed. The increase in livestock production within the Community in recent years has led to the spectacular development of a new factor - that of cereal substitutes - to the extent that increased demand from the animal sectors has been met largely by cheap substitutes, rather than by cereals. The Commission of the European Communities has proposed that over the next few years, the community narrow the gap between its own cereal prices and those applied by its main competition.
