Potatoes wrap up season in southern Alberta
Edzo Kok of the Potato Growers of Alberta says 2010 will be forgotten for its challenges but notes losses came in around five percent. Harvest finished on schedule given conditions with yields and quality better than feared though fresh varieties lagged. Heavy rains caused soil compaction and extra dirt during digging, yet growers look to a brighter 2011.
