After covering more than 15,000 km and filming dozens of success stories, the Potato Tour is rolling toward the vast fields of the Urals and Siberia—with another 30,000 km still ahead. We have already secured preliminary agreements from six standout farms and invite your enterprise to be the next stop on this historic journey. Participation is completely free—all you need to do is open your gates and let the cameras in.
