Potato Europe: underlining the importance of this essential crop<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Wheat, maize and rice may be the world\u2019s top three crops, but guess what\u2019s at number four?<\/p>\n

The potato is the world\u2019s most important non-grain crop, and Europe is the world\u2019s second-largest potato producer. That makes Potato Europe<\/strong><\/a>, the annual exhibition for the European potato industry, a major event in the calendar of growers and suppliers alike.<\/p>\n

Held this year in Germany, Europe\u2019s largest producer, the September event saw Fertiglobal join over 100 exhibitors and 8,000 visitors in flocking to Lower Saxony \u2013 Germany\u2019s \u2018potato state\u2019 \u2013 to exchange ideas and information on current topics and new products.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe potato\u2019s come a long way since it was first introduced to Europe less than 500 years ago,\u201d says Dr Matthias Griesbach, Fertiglobal\u2019s sales director, and one of the five-strong Fertiglobal team at the two-day event.<\/p>\n

\u201cBesides its role as a staple crop, the potato is also agronomically significant, historically, as one of the first crops in which farmers recognised the value and importance of fertiliser.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, we continue to help farmers get more from their crops through appropriate and innovative potato nutrition products<\/strong><\/a>. It\u2019s great to be exhibiting at a show like Potato Europe and discussing our innovative, environmentally friendly nutrition technologies<\/strong><\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Innovations in Potato Farming<\/h5>\n

Innovation was certainly a major thread running through Potato Europe 2022. This year\u2019s event incorporated a special exhibition, Smart Potato Farming, which highlighted the role of digital technologies in current potato production \u2013 Europe is a hotbed of agritech development \u2013 and the exciting tech solutions that are just around the corner.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were particularly interested in some of the sensor solutions,\u201d says Dr Griesbach, \u201cespecially those relating to spot spraying and innovative nozzle technologies, because they fit with our own Fertiglobal philosophy about resource-use efficiency and farm productivity.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe must reduce our use of plant protection products and improve fertiliser efficiency<\/strong><\/a>,\u201d he says. \u201cOn-farm labour is also a well-recognised problem for many producers. Good, reliable technology can provide the industry with viable solutions to these challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n

Potato Europe is an annual event, rotating between Germany, Belgium, France and the Netherlands. With visitors from more than 65 countries in attendance, it reaches far beyond a purely European audience: attendees from North Africa, North and South America, and Asia \u2013 key regions for Fertiglobal \u2013 also come to the exhibition to keep abreast of industry trends.<\/p>\n

Visitors commonly cite information on new varieties, cultivation and agronomy methods, and on-site demonstrations<\/strong><\/a> of equipment as the main reasons to visit the event in person.<\/p>\n

\u201cPotato Europe is a key showcase for technological leaps in potato production,\u201d says the event\u2019s supervisory board, \u201cmaking this event important not only for potato growers but also the entire value chain. The key solutions to current problems from operational practice are usually always presented here.\u201d<\/p>\n

Potato Europe 2023<\/h5>\n

If you didn\u2019t manage to make it to the 2022 event, put these dates in your diary: 6-7 September 2023, near Tournai, Belgium. We\u2019ll look forward to meeting you!<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
