The Northland Potato Growers Association held its annual field day this past week. “We’re always looking for new varieties that can resolve some of the issues that we have in potatoes and field days give us an overall view of what’s coming in the future,” said Carl Hoverson. “The big thing is that North Dakota State University deserves a lot of credit for all the research and work they do to help us have a successful year, a successful crop and making potatoes one of the most important crops in North Dakota and the U.S.” The event continued with a tour of the NPGA irrigated research site in Inkster, North Dakota, then a twilight tour of Oberg Farms in Hoople, North Dakota.
