The data presented here are agronomic indicators of cassava accessions collected during epidemiological surveys of cassava farms across South-West and North-Central Nigeria in 2021-2022. Cassava accessions were obtained from each farm surveyed and initially established in a randomized plot design at the WAVE Covenant University demonstration plot. Agronomic indicators were collected at 3-month intervals following the methods of (Fukuda et al., 2010) [1].
