Abstract
- The article considers ring rot as a possible threat to the potato industry in Great Britain. Ring rot is a potato disease that is creeping across Europe. The author argues that scare stories on the outbreak of this disease must be kept in perspective. In contrast to media reports, the author thinks that there is no reason for this disease to decimate the potato industry. He adds that the publicity alerts should only serve as a warning for the industry and complacent consumers.
