adeniyi65: TME 419 is pure white in colour and which translates to white cassava flour. This has been established by me from my harvest of TME 419 cassava two weeks ago which I have since processed to flour and happily consumed by my family! |

jethro2: Hi Jethro2 When you say it has too much water content, doesn't that just mean it will take longer time to dry so it can still be used for garri processing? What cassava stem variety is good for garri then and do we have a hybrid that satisfies both starch companies and garri producers? |
Re: Why Cassava Farmers Should Choose The TME 419 Variety by jethro2: 3:28pm On Jun 18, 2018 |
mamaaustin: The water content reduces the solid contents thereby decreasing the quantity of gari the processors will get The normal cassava gives 13-15 bags of 50kg when a 3 tons pick up of cassava is processed to gari TME and other hybrid give less quantity. Not sure there is a specific one that satissfy the two The starch processors need the water or liquid content The gari processors need the solid or particle content |
Re: Why Cassava Farmers Should Choose The TME 419 Variety by mamaaustin(f): 10:26pm On Jun 18, 2018 |
jethro2: Thanks so much dear for the clarification. I had been hearing that TME 419 was not good for garri, now I know it was just concerning the turnover from the raw material. I will still go ahead with my plan to process 30% of my harvest to garri and sell the rest to starch producing companies. |

mamaaustin:Please can you explain how can I turn my cassava to cassava starch instead of garri |
Re: Why Cassava Farmers Should Choose The TME 419 Variety by adeniyi65(m): 12:02pm On Jun 22, 2018 |
mamaaustin:thank you mamaaustin. you make the exact justice to the particular juncture where i needed the information most.i was looking for hybrid stem that will favour my white flour production which TME 419 happen to be the source one presently. Thanks once more. |
Re: Why Cassava Farmers Should Choose The TME 419 Variety by mamaaustin(f): 6:41pm On Jun 22, 2018 |
Number999: I am not into starch production, rather I am ready to supply cassava to companies that do. |
Re: Why Cassava Farmers Should Choose The TME 419 Variety by mamaaustin(f): 6:45pm On Jun 22, 2018 |
adeniyi65: You are welcome. I was told by many that TME 419 was only good to be sold for starch but I decided to try processing to flour (Elubo) and it was just as good as other species and quite delicious. I will also try garri processing from it and will be back with my results. |

mamaaustin:good to hear. |

Good pieces of information here. Just planted my Cassava, I was told the stem is foreign and produces yellow garri |

jethro2: jethro2: Hello...Thanks for all dis info on cassava. Pls like how many pick up can someone get on an hectare of cassava with TME variety? |
Re: Why Cassava Farmers Should Choose The TME 419 Variety by jethro2: 4:31am On Jun 24, 2018 |
ola185: The no of pick up varies depending on the soil nutrient, the water management, the diseases control and so many things. An hectare could produce 3 pick ups or more At times some farmer get a pickup Some other times se Farmers do harvest 6 7 or even more |

mamaaustin: So this evening, I just finished processing a pilot batch of my TME 419 garri. As a garri connoisseur and from the state known for the production of the best quality garri and......it was a success. This Garri is so dry and crunchy, we even used it to make eba and it was smooth like semo. Why am I going in to so much detail, because so many people said that this stem was not good for garri production and so far so good. The garri produced is roughly 10 rubber measures and was produced from two 50kg bags (rice bags) of raw cassava. Anyway a picture is worth a thousand words so the pictures are hereby uploaded. Thanks to Jethro for all her support and timely advice. 1 Like

mamaaustin: Congratulations on your gari processing But please some point of correction No one wrote that TME 419 gari is not good for gari What was written is that it's mainly meant for starch production because of its high water content Ask from the gari processors in your area which variety of cassava they prefer They will pay more for other species of gari but pay less for TME 419 and its likes because the gari they will have will be smaller compared to others They will only buy TME 419 when there is no alternative I hope I clarified the statement |

jethro2: My dearest Jethro, I was not referring to you in my statement about some saying that TME 419 stem is not good for garri production. This was what I heard from locals offline and am sure some others may have heard from their interactions with local farmers. It was even your post that clarified why garri processors don't go for TME 419 because of the quantity of garri that would be produced from such cassava. Since I didn't intend to sell to garri processors but rather do the processing to garri for wholesale myself, I have been able to cut out the middle man. Fortunately I have also been able to link up with a company in my locality that is into starch production and ready to buy my entire harvest because it is TME 419. Thanks once again and I hope this has clarified my previous post. 4 Likes |
