2018 Potato Postharvest Processing Evaluation Report
Postharvest Processing Evaluation of Alaska Grown Potatoes A Specialty Crop Block Grant Project Introduction Potatoes have long been a staple produce of Alaskan agriculture. Between the years 2009-2016 Alaska growers have produced between 130,000 to 155,000 cwt annually amounting to over 2 million dollars in sales each year (2017 Alaska Annual Bulletin). There has been increasing interest in the use of Alaska Grown potatoes for processing in the local chipping and restaurant market, but this effort hasn’t been supported with data on the processing quality of our locally produced potatoes. To better meet the needs of the food service industries and to promote a growing market for producers, the Alaska Plant Materials Center (PMC) undertook a postharvest evaluation on our collection of potato varieties grown on site in Palmer, Alaska. The results of this research present timely and relevant data to Alaskan growers, processors and consumers. On a national level, the processing industry accounts for nearly 60% of potatoes produced annually. This trend has caused potato breeders to select for processing qualities, and quite a few processing cultivars have been recently registered and released for use. Although some of these newer varieties are grown here in Alaska, they have not been evaluated and compared to the data collected by growers in other regions or compared to established varieties that are known to do well here. Even if the physical qualities of the varieties were comparable to those grown elsewhere, Alaska is unlikely to compete in the national processing market because of our distance from any commercial processing facility and the small “family farm” scale of operation. -
Potatoes in the Home Garden
for the Gardener Growing Potatoes in the Home Garden f you could cultivate a vegetable crop that could be grown in almost every climate (except hot tropical zones) from sea level to 15,000 feet, could be eaten for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks, prepared in a myriad of ways, be easily kept Iwithout processing or refrigeration for up to 6-8 months, produced high yields (2-5 pounds per square foot) and was extremely nutritious (high in protein, vitamin C, niacin, B vitamins, iron and energy) but low in calories (sans butter and sour cream), you would wouldn’t you? If you did you would be in the minority of home gardeners. Most gardeners eschew the illustrious “spud” (Solanum tuberosum), thinking it doesn’t warrant space in the small garden and that home grown potatoes don’t taste much better than their store-bought counterparts. Not true! Wrong on both counts. Solanum tuberosum (the Andean potato) originated in the highlands of the Andes mountain ranges of South America (Peru, Columbia, Ecuador, Bolivia) at elevations up to 15,000 feet. Potatoes have been in cultivation for more than 2000 years and there are more than 2,000-3,000 Beveridge Melisa varieties extant today. It is an herbaceous perennial in its native habitat, but treated as a tender annual in the temperate zones and damaged by frost at 28-30°F. The plant’s only edible portions are the tubers produced underground, apically (at the tip) on stolons (horizontal underground stems; see drawing at right). While potatoes produce viable seed, the genetic makeup of sexually- produced plants is so diverse and variable (heterozygous) that production from this seed is negligible. -

Some of these concerns can be attributed to agricultural crop management. This project was comprised of research, demonstration, and outreach to address strategies that can be used to minimize or reduce nitrate leaching and phosphorus runoff in agricultural settings. Research evaluating slowed nitrogen transformation products, nitrogen application timing, and nitrogen rates was conducted on potatoes, kidney beans, and corn under irrigation on sandy soils. For potatoes, variety response to nitrogen rate, source, and timing was also evaluated. Results showed several nitrogen management approaches reduced nitrate leaching while maintaining economic yields. Based on these results, promising treatments were demonstrated at a field scale using cost share monies. In some cases, producers tested or adopted new practices without the cost share incentive. • For potatoes, results show that at equivalent nitrogen rates, use of slow release nitrogen reduced nitrate leaching on average by 20 lb nitrogen per acre. -

Potato Glossary
A Potato Glossary A Potato Glossary by Richard E. Tucker Last revised 15 Sep 2016 Copyright © 2016 by Richard E. Tucker Introduction This glossary has been prepared as a companion to A Potato Chronology. In that work, a self-imposed requirement to limit each entry to a single line forced the use of technical phrases, scientific words, jargon and terminology that may be unfamiliar to many, even to those in the potato business. It is hoped that this glossary will aid those using that chronology, and it is hoped that it may become a useful reference for anyone interested in learning more about potatoes, farming and gardening. There was a time, a century or more ago, when nearly everyone was familiar with farming life, the raising of potatoes in particular and the lingo of farming in general. They were farmers themselves, they had relatives who farmed, they knew someone who was a farmer, or they worked on a nearby farm during their youth. Then, nearly everyone grew potatoes in their gardens and sold the extra. But that was a long ago time. Now the general population is now separated from the farm by several generations. Only about 2 % of the US population lives on a farm and only a tiny few more even know anyone who lives on a farm. Words and phrases used by farmers in general and potato growers in particular are now unfamiliar to most Americans. Additionally, farming has become an increasingly complex and technical endeavor. Research on the cutting edge of science is leading to new production techniques, new handling practices, new varieties, new understanding of plant physiology, soil and pest ecology, and other advances too numerous to mention. -
Potato Tuber Viruses: Mop-Top Management A1777

Yellareddygari Research Scientist Department of Plant Pathology, NDSU Owusu Domfeh Student (former) Department of Plant Pathology, NDSU Neil Gudmestad University Distinguished Professor and Endowed Chair of Potato Pathology Department of Plant Pathology, NDSU The potato mop-top virus (PMTV) is spreading throughout the potato-growing regions in the U.S. This viral disease was con- firmed in Maine (2003), North Dakota (2010), Washington (2011), Idaho (2013), New Mexico (2015) and Colorado (2015). It also is found in production areas of Europe, South America and Asia. Figure 1. Tuber flesh exhibiting arcs, streaks and/or flecks Potato mop-top virus is seed- and soil-borne, and vectored when infected with mop-top virus. Flesh also may become by Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea. It is the rust-colored or tinged with brown. (Owusu Domfeh) causal agent of powdery scab on potato. Once established in fields, powdery scab can survive for up to 18 years in the absence of a potato crop. Potato mop-top virus is of economic importance to potato growers throughout the U.S. because it may affect tuber quality and may be transferred from seed to daughter tubers. The potato mop-top virus is restricted primarily to the Solanaceae and Chenopodiaceae families. In addition to infested fields, PMTV has many other potential hosts, such as eastern black nightshade (Solanum ptycanthum), hairy nightshade (Solanum physalifolium), common lambsquarters (Chenpodium album) and sugar beets (Beta vulgaris). -

A Foodservice Guide to Fresh Potato Types POTATOES
THE PERFECT POTATO A Foodservice Guide to Fresh Potato Types POTATOES. THE PERFECT CANVAS FOR MENU INNOVATION. Potatoes aren’t just popular: they’re the #1 side dish in foodservice. You know that baked, mashed, roasted or fried, they have the remarkable ability to sell whatever you serve with them, enhancing presentations and adding value and appetite appeal. Now that you can tap into the intriguing shapes, colors and flavors of today’s exciting new potato types, innovation is easier than ever. No wonder so many chefs, from casual to fine dining, are reinventing potatoes in fresh new ways. So go ahead, grab a handful of potatoes and start thinking big. 1 A SPUD FOR ALL SEASONS AND REASONS. There are more than 4,000 potato varieties worldwide—though only a small fraction is commercialized. In the U.S., about 100 varieties are sold throughout the year to consistently meet the needs of the market. All of these varieties fit into one of five potato type categories: russet, red, white, yellow and specialty (including blue/purple, fingerling and petite). GET CREATIVE! We’ve created these at-a-glance potato type charts to help you find the right potato for any culinary purpose. Use them as a source of inspiration. Even when a potato type is recommended for a given application, another type may also work well to create a similar effect—or even a completely different, yet equally appealing result. Experiment with the types you have access to in new ways you haven’t tried. That’s the key to true menu innovation. -
