IITA and the Federal Institute of Industrial Research, Oshodi (FIIRO) in Nigeria are forging stronger ties and will work together on postharvest and cassava research, capacity building, and youth development. This was highlighted during a recent visit by IITA to FIIRO. FIIRO is one of the pioneering R4D centers for cassava in Nigeria. The institute has made significant contributions to the understanding of cassava fermentation and the development of mechanized technologies for processing gari and fufu flour, among other cassava products. Recently, collaboration between IITA and FIIRO has been strengthened, especially in the production of cassava bread and training of bread bakers. In addition, IITA and FIIRO have been collaborating on the development of many research proposals on cassava and postharvest technology in general. One of the proposals is the BiomassWeb project to be funded in the GlobE program of the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF). The project, led by the Center for Development Research (ZEF) of the University of Bonn, has many African partner institutions, including icipe and IITA.
