Important - Potato Order

19th January 2018




We have been advised the main supplier who controls the Sarpo Mira potato has an issue with quality and consequently the tubers are not available.

Our supplier has offered us an alternative, ‘Setanta’ where the tuber is resistant to blight, and has moderate foliage resistance. It is also suggested the Setanta has:
- An improved taste
- Good keeping time
- Very good resistance to common scab
- Slug damage minimal as they are thicker skinned
- High Yields
- Can be easily roasted, chipped, sautéed and mashed.

On this basis we have accepted the alternative offered. We are expecting the tubers to be delivered mid next week, and then we need to split and bag them ready for collection.
