The Year of the Potato

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations declared 2008 as the International Year of the Potato, aiming to revalue, increase, and promote, the investment and development of the production of this tuber. Since Peru has the greatest diversity of potatoes in the world, the event was launched at the Botanical Garden of Moray, Urubamba, in the region of Cusco.
