Moisture sorption isotherm characteristics and shelf life of Ighu, a traditional food product derived from three cassava varieties processed using two indigenous methods in Isuochi (Umunneochi LGA, Abia State) and Udi (Enugu State), Nigeria was studied. The equilibrium moisture content (EMC) was determined using the static gravi
