The term 'Plant Yielding Starch' can be summarized as CASSAVA, which is a seven-letter word. CASSAVA is a woody shrub native to South America and is widely cultivated as an annual crop in tropical and subtropical regions for its edible starchy tuberous root, a major source of carbohydrates. It is a major food staple in many developing countries and is also used to make tapioca, a popular starch-based food.
