THE GREAT AND the good from the world of spuds will be converging on Ireland next week when the World Potato Congress rolls into town.
The Irish Potato Federation is hosting the 11th meeting of the event, which is set to attract delegates from over 60 countries.

There are over 300 million tonnes of potatoes produced annually, consumed by over one billion people worldwide.
