Land preparation for planting cassava on upland and in valleys differs: On upland, farmers plant on flat ground, or mounds and ridges. In valleys, farmers prepare ridges or mounds above ground level to control water logging.
Mounds range from 30 to 60 cm high.
The space between mounds varies from 60 to 100 cm.
Plow and harrow the field twice. Do these operations when there is enough soil moisture. Plow the field at least 15-30 cm deep.
