Potatoes

Agria potatoes

For over 25 years Galathea BV specialises in the potato variety Agria. An oval-shaped and yellow fleshed ware potato with a smooth skin. Agria is very suitable as a table potato (fairly firm/floury) or for the production of fresh-cut fries. This is why the variety is highly popular within the convenience food market. Thanks to its long and oval shape it is possible to cut long and deep yellow fries from the tubers.

Traceability: from farm to fork

 

Thanks to a unique co-operation with our growing partner NIVU it is possible to offer a full traceability of the crop: from field to fork. A QR-code is printed on every package. When the consumer scans this code the potato story unfolds. Where it grew, how the growing season developed but also when that exact potato was planted, cared for and harvester. Even after harvest every tuber is followed during the storage season, right up to the moment when it lies on the customers’ plate.
