Potato harvesting in Russia's Stavropol region is nearing the halfway mark, with more than 2,000 hectares, or 43% of the planned area, cleared across ten districts. About 83,000 tonnes have been lifted at 36.3 t/ha, above both the national average and the level AB-Centre expected. Only 565 tonnes have gone into storage against capacity of around 43,000 tonnes, so almost the entire crop is going straight to market. While Russia's overall planted area is shrinking, a strong southern harvest means supply will be uneven across the country, with regions like Stavropol partly offsetting declines elsewhere. Growers appear to be prioritising immediate sales, which could weigh on local prices even as national acreage falls. The article does not name its data source. Storage use is minimal so far. Stavropol's yield is well above the level AB-Centre had anticipated for the region.
Potato harvesting in Russia’s Stavropol region is approaching the halfway point, with more than 2,000 hectares — 43% of the planned area — already cleared across ten districts. Roughly 83,000 tonnes have been lifted at a yield of 36.3 t/ha, comfortably above the Russian national average and the figure anticipated by AB-Centre. Notably, only 565 tonnes have been placed into storage against a total capacity of around 43,000 tonnes, meaning the overwhelming majority of the crop is heading straight to market rather than being held back.
