PLANTING UNDERWAY FOR POTATO EUROPE

DEMO PLOT PREPARED FOR SEPTEMBER TRADE FAIR.

ORGANISERS of PotatoEurope 2024, the international potato event that will take place on September 11th and 12th in the northern French town of Villers-Saint-Christophe, have completed planting work on the event’s demonstration plot.

A total of 22 hectares of the Daisy variety from the French trading house Germicopa were planted by the ARVALIS research institute in North Picardy and the expected yield of 1,200 tons from the plot will go to McCain.

The entire potato chain will get together at the PotatoEurope trade fair which this year takes place in Kain, a Belgian town near Tournai.
