Export markets are increasingly important outlets for U.S.-grown potatoes in general and specifically for Idaho, according to Frank Muir, president of the Idaho Potato Commission. Speaking at the 86th annual convention of the Idaho Grower Shipper Association in Sun Valley, ID, Aug. 28, Muir commended the U.S. Potato Board for the efforts it is making to open or re-open various markets around the world for U.S. potatoes. In Idaho, “we are leveraging everything the U.S. Potato Board is doing internationally,” he said. “When we see the growth that is happening internationally, we have to be there, and we are.”
