C & # 39; Agricultural Society warning that the range of potatoes will deteriorate in the coming months. The reason is what is called a "disaster summer" with prolonged drought.

"I really think that there will be a shortage of potatoes in the winter, not only in Sweden, but also in much of Europe," said Johan Skyggeson, Plant Growth Advisor at Hushållssällskapet.

Because of that worse offer, prices of potatoes have already slightly increased. The price situation in winter is not predictable.

However, the heat continued in the fall, however, gave farmers a better starting point before the spring of 2019.

"It's good that we had so many autumn seed crops. It is well ahead of next year and can hopefully involve economic easing for many hard-hit farms, says Pia Björsell, Communications Manager for the Household Society's Plant Growth Advisor.
