Minnesota Seed Potatoes In 2006

摘要

In Minnesota there are some differences between 2005 and 2006. One can find tables with the certified seed potato acreages in Minnesota on page 15. A variety such as Dakota Rose (see picture) has seen an acreage increase this year and seems to be filling its niche for red potatoes. Because of its beautiful color and excellent taste the variety is very popular in the market, but only certain areas seem to be have the right conditions and management practices to overcome its susceptibility to skinning.
