This page is a news repost discussing Flour Mills of Nigeria's announcement of the 5th edition of its Prize for Innovation (PFI) with a specific focus on cassava industrialization. The thread consists of reactions to the news, with users debating the relevance of cassava research, suggesting broader funding for university degrees, and listing non-food industrial applications like ethanol and textiles. There is no actual agricultural fieldwork, trading, or problem-solving discussion, as the content is entirely centered on a corporate innovation prize.

“There are hundreds to thousands of industrial applications for cassava other than food production or human consumption. Industrial starch for ethanol (green fuel), textile industry, and drug production are some examples. Learn!”
