# Datasets on agromorphological characters and distribution of cassava (Manihot esculenta L.) accessions cultivated in South-West and North-Central regions of Nigeria

## TL;DR

This paper presents data on cassava characteristics and distribution from farms in Nigeria's South-West and North-Central regions.

## Contribution

The study provides a new dataset on agromorphological traits of cassava accessions from specific Nigerian regions.

## Key findings

- Agronomic indicators were collected from cassava accessions in Nigeria.
- Data were gathered using a randomized plot design at a demonstration site.
- Findings are based on 3-month intervals following established methods.

## Abstract

The data presented here are agronomic indicators of cassava accessions collected during epidemiological surveys of cassava farms across South-West and North-Central Nigeria in 2021-2022. Cassava accessions were obtained from each farm surveyed and initially established in a randomized plot design at the WAVE Covenant University demonstration plot. Agronomic indicators were collected at 3-month intervals following the methods of (Fukuda et al., 2010) [1].
