Nigeria Aims to Boost Cassava Flour Production for Economic Growth

Nigeria is focusing on scaling up high-quality cassava flour (HQCF) production to leverage its abundant cassava resources. Initiatives like the Cassava Flour Bill aim to increase HQCF inclusion in flour products, with a 20% target by 2030.

The government's efforts, including training programs and policy updates, seek to unlock the economic potential of cassava across the supply chain. Despite past challenges, there is a renewed push to drive value addition and industrial growth through cassava flour production.
