Hi Ray,

For cassava, you could add something on the following page I guess:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Tag:crop%3Dcassava

If you intend to use a screenshot of imagery, make sure you keep the
copyright visible. We got permissions to do so from MapBox, HIU and Bing,
for training purposes.

Cheers

Claire
