potato farms
Spud-growing operations
Potato farms are agricultural operations devoted to growing potatoes, one of the world's most important food crops.
These farms range from small family plots to large commercial enterprises spanning thousands of acres.
Potato farming requires specific soil conditions and careful attention to pest management, as potatoes are susceptible to blight and other diseases.
Idaho's potato farms produce about a third of the nation's supply.
