Just gave my talk "Simplifying research on a complex crop" at the 22nd EAPR triennial conference in Oslo, Norway. This talk is about our 96 genotype research reference set, which we hope will become the standard "Hapmap" collection of international potato research!

With an expanding global population, the demand for food is constantly increasing. 🌍 And the potato offers the perfect solution. Our product is naturally sustainable and thanks to genetics, we are making a real difference. Varieties that are resistant to disease have a higher harvest certainty and offer greater food security. Top quality initial material ensures higher yields per square metre, a sustainable crop and healthier, more affordable food. We are working on these developments day in, day out and aim to lead the field in our sector. #WorldPopulationDay #UN #SDG
