That's a 35 -percent increase since the early 1980s. Their passion for light, crunchy chips bodes well for the success of Saginaw Gold, a new high-quality chipping and table - stock potato, which will be availa- ble to growers next spring. Saginaw Gold is being released jointly by the University of Guelph, Michigan State University, Agriculture Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Its ability to consistently produce light-coloured chips has earned it top markets at Ontario regional po- tato processing trials in the past four years. Anyone wishing to purchase Saginaw Gold seed should contact Agriculture Canada seed inspectors for a seed growers' list .Seed stocks arc also.bcing multiplied in Michi- gan.
