Cassava (Manihot esculenta).
Is a staple crop that is important for food security in the tropics. However, cassava farming can have severe environmental impacts, such as habitat destruction and soil degradation, if it is not carefully managed. Therefore, a wide range of agricultural and environmental outcomes should be considered when cassava farming practices are recommended as “good agricultural practices”. We propose a systematic map of research on cassava farming practices and their impacts on yield, quality, profitability, soil, water, wildlife, pathogens, pests, weeds, and other agricultural and environmental outcomes..
ATTENTION TO THE SMALLEST DETAILS
This map will improve our knowledge of the multifunctionality of cassava farming practices, by answering several questions:
- Which studies have measured the impacts of cassava farming practices on agricultural and/or environmental outcomes?
- Which practices and outcomes have been studied, in which countries, and when?
