How the seed potato industry is reacting to loss of EU market

How the seed potato industry is reacting to loss of EU market >More in © Tim Scrivener The UK leaving the EU has put paid to UK annual exports of about 22,000t of seed potatoes, worth in excess of £10m to the EU, leaving seed growers with tough decisions on their cropping plans for this coming spring. Most are grown in Scotland, where the cool, damp climate is advantageous for reducing virus pressure and other key diseases to produce high-quality seed. Why have seed potato exports to the EU stopped? After the end of the Brexit transition period, Britain was classified under EU trade rules as a “third country”. Under EU Commission rules, “sensitive products” – which seed and ware potatoes as classified as – require separate technical listings for trade to be allowed from third countries.
