Crops like cassava, and yams are drought resistance and can grow to any part of the country thus accommodating every farmer including in the semi arid areas. we will encourage more farmers to join into roots and tubers farming by buying their produce at the best market rate and depending on quality and grade. We will also process the peels and they are high nutritious value to both humans and animals. We will also use the peels to make organic fertilizer. Everything Gojir organic will be processing will be organic and focus on value addition, our puree will be incorporated with maize flour to enhance color & sweeten the end product. since cassava can be grown everywhere once we process it, it will be affordable more nutritious to everyone even those who can't afford maize flour,

The country still import maize and it shouldn't be the case but maize is been affected by alot of things including drought causing the prices to go way to high for most people to even afford. I would like people to go back to their roots and remove their reliance on just maize and try our more nutritious cassava flour, and sweet potatoes puree. Adopting the new healthy eating of yam, cassava flour and sweet potatoes puree will boost our immunity and reduce risk of getting diseases like cancer, nutritional anemias, coronary heart disease, stroke, high BP, type 2 diabetes etc. Using our dried peel as fertilizer will improve soil fertility among other benefits. Our dried peels will reduce cost of animal feeds and increase production, not forgetting its also nutritious to humans so there is no waste.
