PEI Potato Wart Update: Clear and Troubling Sampling Reduction Leaves Questions Unanswered

14 Dec 2021

Description

In light of the multiple potato wart finds on Canada’s Prince Edward Island (PEI), during a meeting of the Potato Association of America on December 1, 2021, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) provided growers and industry partners an update on its soil sampling efforts throughout the province’s potato production area. Kam Quarles, CEO of the National Potato Council calls in to discuss how CFIA's own data -- which demonstrates a clear and troubling reduction in sampling -- leaves the industries on both sides of the border with uncertainties about the spread of the disease on PEI and what the future holds for reopening trade with this important industry partner.
