Potatoes at low altitudes in high temperatures

What do you know about growing potatoes? Most people know it as a high-altitude crop, which is true in terms of yields and adaptability. But studies already show the existence of varieties capable of adapting to the high temperatures of low altitudes. This has great potential in the battle to improve food security and increase production for the population, given that potatoes are a staple food in many countries. This book presents a number of possibilities and can help to guide both scientific researchers and those involved in development. Food security concerns us all, so let's mobilize to help our farmers, who only think of rice as the only crop capable of adapting to low altitudes, because the potato will also serve them well as a crop that can be rotated with rice. Long live food security for all!
