Cassava chips are in great demand all over the world for the production of ethanol. Global warming has placed great demand on nations to minimize the emission of carbon dioxide and other toxic gases into the atmosphere. Ethanol is preferred because it does not emit Carbon dioxide and contains oxygen. Most premium motor spirits (PMS) used these days are either E-10 or E-20; these mean, 10 percent or 20 percent ethanol and 90 percent or 80 percent crude oil. The essence is to minimize the presence of toxic gases which deplete the ozone layer and exacerbate global warming.
Nigeriais expected to export about one million tonnes of cassava chips this year and it will be met through the massive expansion of cassava cultivation to meet the demands of 40 percent cassava flour inclusion in our bread. Cassava is one of the five crops identified as a prospective foreign exchange earner for the country under the Agricultural Transformation Agenda. Over 500 entrepreneurs will be involved in this transformation and we encourage you to start your chips processing plant today to avail of these opportunities and transformation
