Potato Trouble

This time of year is critical for the most overused and often forgotten about crop we grow in the UK.

Potatoes are used on most things and over the years there is no doubt it has turned into a commodity crop that we all just expect to be available in good supply and quality at all times. We have been receiving a warning from potato growers across the land and also processes such as lamb Weston, latosa who produce vast volumes of product are also warning of the troublsome season ahead.

Early lifts of the crop are showing signs of lack of large graded potatoes which are used for bakers, chips etc and also reduced yields. Just take a look at the words flowing from Koffman’s

There isn't a shortage we have great relationships and everything is ok at the moment but please be warned as this coming 18/19 season could be extremely troublesome for our trusty tuber.
