Recomendaciones de conservación

Commercial storage guidance for fresh cassava (yuca) roots; the storage temperature is stated for paraffin-waxed roots. Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Cassava is very sensitive to water loss and develops vascular streaking at wounds, so keep humidity high (waxing or film), handle carefully, and use roots promptly after cold storage before chilling symptoms appear. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
