Cassava is a staple crop valued for its edible tuberous roots, which are rich in carbohydrates and can be processed into various foods like cassava flour, chips, and starchy dishes. It’s a practical choice for food forests due to its substantial yield and resilience in diverse climates, with plants growing up to 10 feet in height and a bushy growth habit. Cassava can be harvested year-round in tropical regions and requires well-drained soil and a warm, frost-free environment for successful cultivation, making it an excellent addition to promote food security and diversify the offerings in a food forest.
