Relaxation of Handling Regulation for Irish Potatoes Grown in Colorado

Summary

The Colorado Potato Administrative Committee for Area No. 3 has relaxed the size requirement for handling Irish potatoes grown in Colorado, allowing for the sale of potatoes with a minimum diameter of 3/4 inch if they meet U.S. No. 1 grade, in an effort to increase marketing flexibility for handlers, returns for producers, and supply for consumers.
