Europatat is part of an international consortium involved in the research project ADAPT which aims at developing new strategies to make potatoes fit for the challenging growing conditions of the future.

Plant scientists at the James Hutton Institute are studying the evolution of late blight in potato by working with industry and research partners to track the distribution and diversity of dominant clones in Europe in 2020

Onder ideale weeromstandigheden zijn op de derde donderdag van april de aardappelen voor
de rooidemonstraties van PotatoEurope gepoot. Met een druk op de startknop stuurde
waarnemend burgemeester van de Noordoostpolder Jan Westmaas de autonome
werktuigdrager Robotti op pad om de eerste aardappel te poten.

The PotatoEurope organization has started preparing the potato trial fields at the event location near the central Dutch city of Lelystad.
