Article Headline:
Global warming could benefit potato industry
Abstract:
Climate change could result in a positive outcome for the potato industry and possibly lead to potatoes becoming one of the top staple crops in the world, says University of Pretoria (UP) Potato Pathology Programme manager Dr Jacquie van der Waals. She says the potato appears to be the only crop, which might thrive amid increasing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.
