Panigrahy, Shakti ranjan
مجهول. Gujarat holds first position in potatoproductivity having 30.64 tons/ha ascompared to national average of 23.67 tons/ha in 2019-2020 (Panigrahy and Kalamkar,2021). The Western region of India contributes14.47 percent to national potato production,in which Gujarat accounts for 51.27 percent(GOI, 2017). Starting from infrastructuraldevelopment (cold storage, logistics) tosetting up many processing organizations,this state represents itself as a model innational spheres that pave a way towardspotato business ecosystem. Despite all therosy pictures and facts in favour of potatoproduction of the state, cost of production hasbeen increasing which is a matter of concernfor many. It was observed that seed impactedmaximum in cost of potato production(Pandey et al., 2018) and Gujarat has thenatural disadvantages being not fit to produceseeds due to its warmer climatic condition(Rana et al., 2012). As a result, producersdepend on other states for quality seed thatescalates the cost of potato production. Seedis biological in origin and thus requires aspecific temperature and humidity to bekept in cold storage.
