Global Reach. Real Stories. One Industry.
Potatoes.News is a leading international media ecosystem dedicated entirely to the potato and vegetable value chain. We are more than just a news aggregator; we are a digital bridge connecting growers, scientists, equipment manufacturers, and processors across continents.
Our mission is to unite the industry. From seed breeding in Europe to logistics in Asia and farming in Africa, we provide the objective information that professionals need to make better decisions.
1. The Media Platform
Potatoes.News serves as a daily source of market intelligence for the global agricultural community. We cover the trends, technologies, and challenges defining the sector.
- Market Insights: We track price trends, harvest forecasts, and trade regulations.
- Agronomic Expertise: We publish in-depth articles on cultivation technologies, crop protection, and storage innovations.
- Global Networking: We create a space where a farmer in one hemisphere can learn from a processor in another, facilitating the exchange of experience and opening new business opportunities.
2. The International Potato Tour (IPT)
The International Potato Tour (IPT) is our flagship documentary and field-research initiative. It is a unique media project that takes the industry out of the office and into the field.
Unlike traditional reporting, IPT is a continuous expedition. Our team travels thousands of kilometers across Russia, the CIS, Europe, Asia, and Africa to document the reality of potato production.
Our Approach: “Real Fields, Real People” We believe that the truth about agriculture cannot be found in a brochure.
- We film at real farms, storage facilities, and factories.
- We showcase how technologies work in actual production conditions.
- We tell the stories of the people who feed the world.
In 2026, the International Potato Tour embarks on a new global route to document the innovations that will define the next decade of potato farming.
Our Philosophy & Leadership
The project was founded by Viktor Kovalev, a visionary with a deep personal passion for agriculture.
Viktor established this ecosystem with a simple premise: to treat the potato not just as a commodity, but as a vital element of global food security and culture. His vision drives our editorial policy and our expedition goals. As our core motto states:
“We are looking for those who love potatoes as much as our creator, Viktor Kovalev.”
Whether you are a grower, a trader, or an equipment manufacturer, if you share this passion for the industry, you are part of our community.

We are always open to cooperation, new routes for our tour, and partnership opportunities.
