On August 23, 2023, the opening of the exhibition POTATO DAYS TURKEY 2023 NEVSEHİR - AVANOS Potato Field Day in Turkey (Nevsehir) took place.
The exhibition was organized by DLG FUARCILIK. LTD.STİ. The Potato System magazine acted as an information partner.

As part of the business program, a round table was held with the participation of delegations from Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and the Republic of Belarus. The round table was moderated by Tatyana D Gubina, head of the Potato Union Staff. At the round table, potato growers exchanged information on the current state of the potato market, identified problems that are common to neighbors: the state of seed production, training of specialists, overproduction of products in the current season. Potato growers agreed that problems can and should be solved jointly.
The event announced the holding of the first industry exhibition Potatoes and Vegetables on January 24-26, 2024 in Moscow. All in all, attending Potato Day in Turkey was helpful. Demo plots with different varieties of potatoes were of great interest. We thank the organizers and members of the delegation for a professional event and useful communications.
