Hi Shaun, this is a good place to start. If you need any advice on growing, storing, hygiene, efficiencies, grading, diseases or anything to do with potatoes. There is a lot of knowledge here just not written on the forum yet, a lot of people ask by direct message so the answers unfortunately don't appear on here to build up the knowledge. It can be frustrating when starting out to find info as there is not a lot to find easily online or in one place and there is also a lot of non truths out there. In practice you may try something new but so many factors can give you a different result on a different year, conditions at planting, conditions at tuber initiation, quality of the seed, soil health to name a few. You can start a new category or ask a question in the forum to start it off and let's share the knowledge.

A forum that delivers questions, answers, more questions and lots of ways to improve the way we grow, harvest, store, grade and market our potatoes. Questions or topics such as new equipment, biologicals, chemicals that are in and out and where to go next, money saving tips, storage issues, harvesting, organic growing, best practice in all areas. A group of individuals from every aspect of a potatoes journey from field to store to fork to help others, to give knowledge to everyone that needs it and gain it from others. What better way than from the people that have the knowledge, the growers, the stores managers, the farm workers, the agronomists, the fields person, the agricultural machinery experts, the agri- chemical merchants, irrigation specialists, storage specialists, merchants, buyers, the list goes on. These are the people to deliver the new way to exchange knowledge and show the way forward for potato growers, you. Thank you.

Hi Angela, the AHDB potatoes is the Agricultural and Horticultural Development Board are an organisation that all growers and suppliers have to pay a statutory levy based on planted area or sales. This money is then supposed to pay for research and development and also advertisement for potatoes in the UK.
