NIGERIA 1961. FAO assignment in Nigeria
Nigeria, 1961 - Two Dutch experts, Mr Melle Zwankuizen and Mr. Gustaaf Baumer, were recently in Nigeria on a technical assignment to improve the processing and use of cassava and other crops. Mr. Baumer was mainly engeged in the improvement and development of gari processing (from cassava tubers), working with a pilot plant of the Federal Institute of Industrial Research at Lagos. This plant has provided the basis for planning a commercial unit processing 10 tons of dry gari a day.
Mr. Baumer also investigated the possibility of establishing tapioca starch factories in Nigeria, which comes from the same source as gari.
This photograph shows a centrifuge introduced as a such more efficient way of pressing gari than the old-fashioned press. The centrifuge is cleaner, faster and does a better job.
Exact date unknown.
