The day is dedicated to highlighting the potato's role as a vital food source for billions worldwide and its contribution to food security, livelihoods, and employment, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).


Did you know?

  • About 2/3 of the world's population consumes potatoes as its staple food; nearly 50% of potatoes are used as the household staple food or vegetable.

  • The potato is resistant to drought, cold, and barren land with wide adaptability.

  • By 2030, the total production of potatoes will reach 750 million tons, with an increase of 112%, of which the production of Asia, Africa and Latin America will exceed 440 million tons, with an increase of 100%, accounting for about 59% of the world.

 

Dy adopting drip irrigation:

  • Growers can expect an increase of at least 25% in yields compared to other irrigation methods.

  • While the world average production is 20 t/ha, fields with drip irrigation can achieve yields of 60 t/ha.

  • The running costs of water, chemicals and manpower are significantly lower.

  • A shallow subsurface installation (SDI) can extremely benefit potato crops.
