The US is fighting a French fry shortage because it's been so cold that farmers are struggling to harvest their potatoes
Potato crop yields dropped in areas like Alberta, Colorado, Idaho, Manitoba, North Dakota, and Minnesota due to cold weather snaps between September and November.
"French fry demand has just been outstanding lately, and so supplies can't meet the demand," Travis Blacker, industry-relations director with the Idaho Potato Commission, told Bloomberg.that the production of potatoes at US farms will drop substantially this year."Production of potatoes for the 2019 crop year is forecast at 422 million cwt [22.4 million tons] down 6% from last year," it said.
"Washington producers reported some quality concerns due to soil borne issues and freeze damage at the end of the harvest season."
