The community in Adaklu produces and cooks cassava (gari) for their own consumption and for sale. They cook the gari and sell it as a processed product. They have been using traditional cook stoves until SAG introduced more efficient community stoves emitting less smoke.
This has resulted in better quality gari while making smoke-related diseases are a thing of the past. Notably, the cooking time has also significantly reduced.
With these improvements, some of the challenges they still have include the absence of a presser and slicer. The presser used is time consuming and very inefficient. The slicer comes on a request basis.
