The cultivation period of cassava in Kagoshima, Japan, which belongs to the temperate zone, is limited by the low temperature in winter. To maximize productivity under this limited period, investigations were conducted on the gas exchange rate and production structure relating to light utilization in a plant community of cassava grown under different nitrogen fertilization conditions. Fertilization either at planting or three months after planting significantly increased stomatal conductance in the upper canopy and root dry weight compared to the control. In addition, the dry matter distribution to stem and root dry matter rate of initial fertilization treatment were significantly higher, and the dry matter distribution to root of the latter fertilization treatment tended to be higher than that of the control. However, light transmittance at 80 cm below the top of the canopy was almost the same as that at the ground surface, which was a common tendency among the treatments. In conclusion, it was revealed that the effects of fertilization on yield were mainly the increase in the gas exchange rate of individual leaves and the change of dry matter distribution rather than an improvement in light transmittance.
