Cassava brown streak disease

Last week, I blogged about the alarming spread of cassava brown streak disease (CBSD)in Africa.  I mentioned a 2011 video interview of FAO Agricultural Officer Jan Helsen speaking about it.

Jan was kind enough to provide us with powerpoint slides of the talk he made last week about the implications of CBSD and Cassava Mosaic Disease in the South Sudan.
