AHDB under scrutiny as growers get vote on future of potato levy © Gary Naylor LAST CHANCE: Growers claim they are being badly served by AHDB Potatoes.

Every potato growing or buying business which has paid levy in the 12 months up to the ballot closing is entitled to one vote. The ballot will be run by an independent company and the results will be submitted to the farming ministers in England, Wales and Scotland, who will decide on the future of the statutory potato levy which currently stands at £42.62 per planted hectare, and 18.58p per tonne for purchase
