A lot of people are wondering why potato? Many of us do not know that the potatoes we are eating, the french fries that all of you love to eat, those mashed potatoes available in your favorite KFC stores, are very essential specially to those who are living in poor situated regions. Potato for breakfast, potato for lunch, potato for dinner. That is their normal eating day. That is the reason why U.N. wants to increase the peoples awareness and concern about this underrated crop, of which, according to surveys, is the 4th largest crop when it comes to the rate of harvest every annually.
