The French potato harvest in 2023 increased by 12.7% compared to the catastrophic year 2022 to 6.8 Mt, although it has been a complicated year. The year has been characterized by a serious drought and then by incessant rains. Planting was delayed between three weeks and a month, which in turn has delayed the harvest, which was very difficult in certain areas due to continuous rains since October, according to estimates from the French Potato Interprofessional (CNIPT).

1. France: Good Harvest In 2023 Despite A Difficult Year
The French potato harvest in 2023 increased by 12.7% compared to the catastrophic year 2022 to

drought and then by incessant rains. Planting was delayed between three weeks and a month, which
in turn has delayed the harvest, which was very difficult in certain areas due to continuous rains
since October, according to estimates from the French Potato Interprofessional (CNIPT).

Extreme Weather Tests French Potato Harvest
In 2022, the harvest reached only 6 Mt due to the worst yield in more than 25 years, due to drought
and extreme heat that have stunted the tubers. In 2023, the yield has been close to the ten-year
average and the cultivated area has increased by 2.3%. The harvest has increased in Hauts-de-
France, which is the first producing region, although there will be losses, not yet quantified, due to
flooding in some areas. There will be part of the harvest that will be lost and another will have less
quality so it will have to go to animal feed. Difficult, even extreme, weather conditions tend to
become the norm, the CNIPT points out.
