Idaho Potato Harvest Indicates Yield Decrease (video)

September 28, 2007
Harvest time is here and Idaho farmers are busy digging up their fields.  But the hot weather we saw this summer has taken a toll on the local crop.

The fields are pretty much dug up, with a few stragglers left behind.  While farms say the quality of potato is still high, the yield is taking a major hit.

According to the USDA, early estimates shows Idaho crop yield down 6 percent from last year.
