Cassava is important to the Democratic Republic of Congo as they get tapioca from this plant. Tapioca is used to make bread as a source of food. Farming is one of the main occupations of the people over there. Cassava is the most important tropical root crop. Its starchy roots are a major source of dietary energy. Cassava can be stored in the ground for several seasons, thereby serving as a reserve food when other crops fail.
