This guide is directed to those who develop new products from root and tuber crops as a means of increasing the incomes of small-scale farmers and processors and improving supplies of food and feed, and industrial raw material. The authors draw from a decade of intensive work by international centers and national programs to improve crop utilization and marketing. Part I of the manual focuses on cassava, potato, and sweetpotato to present an approach to product development and explain in detail how to apply it. Part II summarizes 10 case studies of product development projects. 166 p. 21.5 x 28 cm. Also available in Spanish.
