Abstract
Of ten varieties of potatoes from three major producing areas of Manitoba, Cherokee, Irish Cobbler, Norland and Netted Gem each produced high quality chips in at least one area. Variations in chipping qualities occurred between localities. Reducing sugar and specific gravity were reliable indexes of chip quality. A simplified method for measuring chip colour is outlined.Keywords
