Evaluation of cassava clones for leaf production in Zaire
1984
Lutaladio, N.B. (Programme national manioc (PRONAM), Kinshasa (Zaire))
At Mvuazi, Zaire, the tops of 30 cassava clones were harvested periodically, and the production of tender leaves for use as a vegetable was evaluated. The local variety, Mpelongi, had the highest yield (10.2t/ha) of tasty leaves, but several other varieties proved to be good leaf producers. Staff at Programme national manioc (PRONAM) are studying ways of improving varieties for higher yields of both leaves and roots. Cultural practices and factors influencing leaf production will be analyzed.
