It holds promise for food and nutritional security in the scenario of ever growing human population, due to its inherent efficiency in producing high dry matter, energy and edible protein per unit area per unit time. It provides carbohydrates, minerals, vitamin C, a number of B group vitamins, high quality proteins and dietary fibre. People of several European and Latin American countries consume potato as a staple food. Thinkers and planners in developing countries like India recognize potato as the potential food crop for ensuring food and nutritional security to fight hunger and malnutrition. A wealth of information on different technical aspects of potato crop and its cultivation under sub-tropical climate has been generated from the concerted research efforts, which made India, a leader in sub-tropical potato production.
