Varieties and Landraces: Cultural Practices and Traditional Uses, Volume Two in the Underground Starchy Crops of South American Origin series, brings information on the applied level of producing and using starch from a range of plants grown in tropical and subtropical areas of South American origin. The book presents the economic and social importance of these crops that store starch in underground organs. The title also explores bioactive compounds as a way for the valorization of these crops, along with commercial and traditional cultivation in South America (Colombia/Venezuela/Andean highlands, Mexico, Brazilian savannah and Pantanal, besides the Amazon forest), bringing botanical information, too.

Edited by a team of experts with a solid background in starch extraction research, this book is ideal for anyone involved in research and development, as well as anyone in cultivation, quality control and legislation in the field of starch.

Marney Pascoli Cereda, Ph.D. has graduated in Agronomic Engineering at University of São Paulo, Brazil. She idealized and was the first Director of a Research Centre specialized in tropical starches. For her activities in research, she received in 2000 the Medal of Merit from the São Paulo Government. She also realized post-doctoral internships in Spain, France and England and technical visits in China, Thailand, Japan, India and in most Central and South American countries. Her researches focus mainly in food technology and development. In food technology she works mainly with food security, food safety and the use of agroindustry’s wastes. In rural agroindustry’s, she works in the development of processes in social technology and valorization of family farming products production by innovative technologies. She developed 3 patents and other 6 are in analysis process. From 2018 she remains an independent researcher and coordinates the Agro: Research, Processes and Products Laboratories. Olivier François Vilpoux, Ph.D. has graduated in Agronomic Engineering at “Institut Supérieur D'agriculture” (1991), in France, with a Master’s in Business from the Institut de “Gestion Internationale en Agro Alimentaire” (1992) and a PhD in Business from the “Institut National Polythecnique de Lorraine” (1997), France. From 2004 to 2019 he was a professor at the Catholic University of Campo Grande (UCDB) and Professor of the Master and Doctorate Program in Local Development (UCDB), Brazil. From 2014 to 2019 he has been professor of the Doctorate in business at the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul. Currently he is professor of the Master of Management and Environmental Technology at the Federal University of Mato Grosso (UFMT). He works mainly on the following themes: collective action, cooperatives and family farming.
