Cassava leaf, an important by-product of cassava industry, is rich in protein, minerals and flavonoids. This article reviews the utilization of cassava leaf in the production of food, animal feed and antioxidants in recent years, analyzes the effects of anti-nutritional factors and extraction of an- tioxidative flavonoids on the utilization of cassava leaf, finally puts forward the main problems in the utilization of cassava leaf, to provide a theoretical basis for the ba- sic research of cassava leaf.展开更多
