Cassava Brown Streak Disease outbreak

There is been a report now in town that there is an outbreak of "Cassava brown streak disease" which is actually spreading like wide fire, experts are warning that this rapid plant virus can make feeding hard and lead to a 50% decrease in the production and yield of Cassava that happens to be the main source of food for average african countries and also as a means where they get income from manufacturing and processing the cassava into different forms.

With a population of over 300million africans benefiting from it, this will interest you especially when it the disease gets to Nigeria which is the major and main producer and consumer of this specie, God save nigeria!
