It is one of the series of programmes to ensure quality improvement projects undertaken by the NEPC to educate farmers and processors about adherence to good agricultural practices (GAP).

The overall objective of the Council is to see that farmers and processors produce quality products that conform to international quality requirements and standard, thereby enhancing agricultural productivity.

In line with this, Abdulmalik in her paper called on stakeholder’s/key players in the Cassava production sector to abstain from wrong practices .

According the her, this is necessary to improve business efficiency resulting from good agricultural practices to propagate the consumption of Nigerian Cassava finished products.
