2007 Potato Cultivar Evaluations 73 WSU Potato Research Group ERT
ERT 2007 Early Harvest Regional Trial Fresh Value Economic Potential The gross return in U.S. dollars per acre for each trial entry was calculated using WA (Columbia Basin) four-year average fresh potatoes prices. Production costs per acre were not applied. All assumptions are listed at the front of the book under “Fresh Market Value - Methods.” Assessing the fresh value of a given lot of potatoes is difficult because the actual market allows fresh-pack sheds to utilize a mix of tuber sizes and packaging to meet demand changes in an effort to maximize income potential. Following discussions with actual pack-sheds and complying with USDA standards, the packaging and size ranges used to produce the fresh value below (figure 1) provide a good base for variety comparison. A packaging and handling fee (pack-shed operating fee) of $3.50 was assessed on each CWT of potatoes. This economic evaluation does not fully account for consumer preferences for each trial entry. Figure 1, below, shows the difference in gross value from Russet Norkotah for all trial entries. Figure 1. Difference in gross return per acre (Fresh Market) from Russet Norkotah calculated by subtracting the gross return of Russet Norkotah ($4350) from the gross return of the particular entry. Entries with the white-colored bars may not appeal to fresh market consumers due to undesirable shape or appearance. 2007 Potato Cultivar Evaluations 74 WSU Potato Research Group
