Potato storage will be in the spotlight at a specialist British Potato Council event in Marston, Lincolnshire, on January 16.

The Potato Storage Conference 2007, aimed primarily at growers and agronomists, will focus on key technical challenges facing the sector, the latest residue regulations and the reduction of energy costs.

A series of workshops will concentrate on practical solutions and cover issues including energy use, sprout suppressants, store lay-out and storage costs.
