Basic Information

Participants

Accomplishments

This committee continues to function in an exemplary way. Their task is to replace Russet Burbank with varieties that have superior characteristics for processing and for fresh market. They use the expertise in each state to develop the new varieties. This year the committee released varieties for processing, fresh market, chipping and specialty.

Attendance at meetings continues to include state scientists and technicians, ARS scientists and technicians and the private sector. The private sector includes processors, seed growers, growers, and marketing specialists. Communications are good between all attending.
New web sites have been developed in all of the states and organizations participating in the multi-state activity. The information provided includes the actions of WCC-27, the Tri-state committee, the characteristics of the lines being tested, processing qualities, best production practices, return on investment if a grower chooses to use one of the newly developed varieties and databases with a large complement of information, including pictures. These sites can be accessed through individual states or through the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station web site.

Impacts

  1. The named varieties are: Gem Russet, IdaRose, Klamath Russet, Russet Legend, Mazama, and Winema.
  2. Economic analysis of the potato varieties tested are located at http://www.wsu.edu/~fullern/
