On the potato industry’s screens: Recent videos explore harvest, storage and breeding
Six recent YouTube uploads provide perspectives on potato harvesting, storage, machinery and breeding. Potato News Today’s selection brings together updates from Bells Farming and Rocky Mountain Farmer, an APH Group harvesting demonstration, Trekkerweb’s PotatoEurope coverage and a Root2Res discussion featuring Teagasc researchers. Published between September and November 2026, the videos connect seasonal farm operations with equipment developments and the longer-term work of developing potato varieties for different production environments worldwide.

Great to see Tim sharing insights from the Root2Res project at the European Parliament.
Tim took part in a Root2Res policy session at the European Parliament on 12th October, highlighting how research into plant roots and soil biology can help develop the next generation of resource-efficient and climate-resilient crops.🫘🌾

We joined the 4th Root2Res Annual meeting in Maribor Slovenia. It was great to catch up with everyone as we move into the last year of the project. We made lots of plans to finish the project off in style.

Great to see so many out lending a hand — and we even stayed dry.
Now onto the small matter of processing all those samples!!
