Background
Cassava or Manihot esculenta Crantz is tropical plant that can produce flour. Cassava can grow well in tropical land and indicated from Brazil (Radley, 1976). The abundance of cassava farms in almost every area.

Many industrial houses / small cassava producing a snack with flavor variants, cheap production prices and interested teenagers.

Produce waste of cassava peel

Trends in product of cassava: Cassava chip

LITERATURE
Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN) in Cassava
1. Cyanide is the an-organic compound with cyanic as the main structure 2. Cyanide is form of gaseous, colourless, odourless and easy typical yawning. Cyanide assumed as pollutant because of its properties of toxic for living things. 3. The tuber of cassava have white colour or yellowish, in sweet flavour can produce for about 20 mg HCN or hydrogen cyanide per kilogram of fresh tuber and 50 times more of cyanide in bitter tuber.

PROCESS MAKING
Exfoliation Exfoliate the cassava skin from the tuber of cassava Washing Wash the skin and clean it Seaming Seam the skin use the blender, fill it with the water appropriately. After that, divided the solution into 3 solutions. Extortion Divide first solution into pure solution with extortion. Divide second solution into same solution (cassava skin and water) Divide third solution with extortion and storage it for about 3 hours.

Addition

This solution of the cassava will be treated to the plant into 3 treatments. First treatment is use the pure solution that does not contain of cassava skin, second treatment is use both solution and cassava skin, the third treatment is use the precipitation water after it storage for about 3 hours. We will identify which one is the best solution as bio-pesticide. The pH universal tester is used to know how acid the solution of cyanide in cassava, because hydrogen cyanide is acidic. In further, spectrophotometer analysis used to identify cyanide in cassava skin (Johannes, 2005).
