PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 353-364, January 2026.Cassava is a lifeline for millions of people across the tropics, but its productivity is at risk from a disease called Cassava Bacterial Blight (CBB). In this study, we explore how the everyday practices of farmers exchanging cassava cuttings—a long‐standing tradition—can shape how the disease spreads and evolves in the Colombian Caribbean.
