Supporting you, from soil to store
Our potato specialists can support you across the breadth of your potato production cycle.
The potato crop is a high value enterprise, whether for seed, fresh ware, processing or export markets.
It requires specialist advice and services to manage the broad range of production challenges from soil to store, to help maximise the return on your investment.
Our potato agronomists are experienced in all aspects of potato production and are supported by a team of knowledgeable regional specialists across a range of disciplines. We have more advisors looking after potatoes than any other organisation in the UK and this includes Research and Development.
We're also a member of The Potato Partnership.
The Potato Partnership
The Potato Partnership seeks to advance our knowledge base in addressing the production challenges of today and the future, building upon many years of in-house and collaborative research.
