This dataset provides a description of cassava farmers collected in the Colombian Caribbean Region in 2017. The survey was implemented using a structured questionnaire administered among 395 households, collecting data at both household and plot level. Survey information includes household socio-demographic characteristics, cassava management practices (e.g. improved variety and other input use, etc.) and cassava production and utilization. Additionally, it was collected crop samples for DNA fingerprinting. The dataset contains numeric, categorical and string variables.
