The World Potato Congress (WPC) is set to convene in 21 weeks in Adelaide, Australia, bringing together stakeholders from across the globe. Nigel Crump’s recent visit to the Potato Expo in Austin, Texas, served as a pivotal moment to strengthen ties with sustaining partners, including Platinum Partner, the P.E.I. Potato Board.
Nigel Crump seized the opportunity to connect with the P.E.I. Potato Board, whose General Manager, Greg Donald, also serves as Treasurer on the WPC Board of Directors. The collaborative efforts were further underscored by the presence of John Visser, P.E.I Potato Board Chair, and Rit VanNieuwenhuyzen, P.E.I Potato Board member. These interactions highlight the crucial role sustaining partners play in fostering innovation and knowledge exchange within the potato industry.
The engagement extended to Walter Davidson of @W.D.Potatoes Ltd, another WPC Platinum Sustaining Partner. The gathering in Austin, Texas, for the PotatoExpo facilitated discussions on the latest trends, technologies, and challenges faced by the potato farming community. It showcased the significance of global alliances in addressing the evolving needs of the industry.
As we approach the World Potato Congress in June 2024, the collaborations forged during events like the Potato Expo exemplify the industry’s commitment to progress. Sustaining partners like the P.E.I. Potato Board and @W.D.Potatoes Ltd contribute to the collective wisdom driving innovations in potato cultivation. The exchange of ideas, expertise, and the anticipation of the Congress in Australia signify a promising future for the global potato community.
