Ride the Wave of Cassava’s Global Surge: From Staple to Industrial Star
📢Cassava is the third-largest source of carbohydrates in the world and is essential for over 800 million people. The demand for cassava starch is projected to grow by 4.4% annually until 2030, fuelled by its use in gluten-free foods, biodegradable plastics, and bioethanol production. Yet, Africa—where cassava thrives—captures less than 10% of the global market share.
