In short, what I did was planting the cassava in rows so you can see here it is summer not even noon and it is almost reaching 40 degrees celsius, plants that thrive on 35 to 30 degrees celsius get really battered in the hot sun, some do survive but most don't.
Planting the cassava, which grows fast, provides them with some element of shade during the peak hours of the day, and the cassava doesn't go to waste, it's a great source of carbs and wild animals like armadillos and partridges dig around the tree and eat the roots as well.
