Cassava, a potential biofuel crop in China
Cassava is ranking as fifth among crops in global starch production. It is used as staple food in many tropical counties of Africa, Asia and Latin America. In China, although not being a staple food yet, cassava is of major economic importance for starch production of a large area of the south China, especially in the provinces of Guangdong, Guanxi, Yunnan and Hainan. Recently, Cassava-derived bioethanol production has been increasing due to its economic benefits compared to other bioethanol-producing crops in the country. We discuss here the possible potentials of cassava for bioethanol production.
