New Cultivars tested;

AC Peregrine Red is a newly released very dark red-skinned variety under exclusive Canadian licence to the Saskatchewan Seed Potato Growers’ Association.

Cherry Red this Colorado variety is exceptionally red and holds its colour well, but is late maturing.

Umatilla a new release from the Idaho breeding program, this russet skinned potato is believed to have superior processing and disease resistance characteristics to Russet Burbank.

Gem Russet a new release from the Oregon breeding program, this russet skinned potato is believed to have better yields and processing characteristics than Russet Burbank.


The 2001 growing season was excellent, providing supplemental irrigation was available. Less

than 3" of rainfall was received over the growing season and the dryland plots were severely

moisture stressed.
