A food ingredient produced from the cassava tuber or yuca root as it is also known. The tuber provides the base to make Tapioca products, such as pellets (pearls), flour, flakes, or the Tapioca Syrup. High in starch, Tapioca Syrup is commonly used in the production of other foods or as a replacement for corn syrup in baked goods. Tapioca Syrup is used to add sweetness, binding or texture to beverages, baked goods, table syrups, frozen desserts, and candies. When used as a binding agent, Tapioca helps to keep foods such as meats from drying out after they are processed.
Tapioca pellets are commonly used as a thickening agent in pie and tart fillings or in soups, sauces and gravies. When cooking with Tapioca products, do not overcook any items with Tapioca as they become starchy and overly stickly.

Philippines, A farm area of at least 23 hectares is eyed for cassava planting in a partnership between the Central Visayas Integrated Agricultural Research Center (CVIARC) and San Miguel Corp. (SMC) for cassava’s use for feed and fuel.
The CVIARC in Ubay, Bohol, is seen to become a source of planting material for cassava, particularly the varieties KU50 or NSIC CV22 (from the National Seed Industry Council, a seed certification body).
"The target planting material production is good for 23 hectares with 3 to 4 meters with at least 4 to 6 nodes per meter stalk," according to the Department of Agriculture’s Bureau of Agricultural Research which coordinates the cassava planting.
The propagation of planting material will help efforts provide cassava to SMC which a well-known user of cassava for its distillery, for fodder is, and potentially, for producing biofuel. Irrespective of the state university in Bohol, it Philippine research Rootcrops and the training centre (PRCRTC), which is established on the university of the state Visayas in Baybay, Leyte, technical and financial assistance for planting cassava to grant. The government supports spread planting cassava seen plans more washed which can be used as bioethanol raw material. Planting cassava, a plant which in marginal areas can survive become, is being piloted in Regions 2, 10, 7, and 12. After the pilot project, cassava it will plant 4A in areas, 4B, 5, 6, and are extended 8.
