From the Ag Information Network, I’m Bob Larson. The 2025 Potato Expo is in the rear-view mirror after industry folks gathered for their annual meeting to talk about all things agriculture and potatoes specifically.

Kam Quarles, CEO of the National Potato Council, was extremely happy with the event and with the turnout …

QUARLES … “It was fantastic. The second biggest show we have ever had. 2,170, seven-zero, people joined us here in Orlando. It’s been a tremendous turnout and we’re so excited that the show floor has been packed for the last two days. I think the exhibitors, the sponsors, everybody is just very, very happy.”

And, Quarles says there were a lot of great discussions over a variety of topics …

QUARLES … “The sessions that I’ve been on the stage for, a lot of folks in the audience. We really spent a lot of time, nearly a year, trying to get down to what the priorities are for this incredibly diverse, sophisticated industry.”

Bottom line, Quarles says there was a lot to talk about …

QUARLES … “All three stages have had really substantive, meaningful panels or individuals speaking that talked about kind of all facets that really matter to growers.”

Tune in tomorrow for more on the 2025 Potato Expo and what to look forward to next year.
