Like the Milling Manual this not just a textbook explanation of tubers and their processing – it comprehensively covers the real and practical issues that need to be addressed to establish and sustain a food processing business. The following are covered in detail-

- practical checklists ensuring the entrepreneur covers everything
- practical information on processing loss
- worked calculations on technical and financial issues
- practical rules supporting the hygiene message
- process flowsheets defining manufacturing processes
