HC Deb 20 July 1966 vol 732 cc87-8W
52. Mr. Brewis

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what he estimates the short-fall in the amount of potatoes for human consumption will be this year.

Mr. Hoy

I can find no basis for the assumption that we are going to be short of potatoes this year. It is too early to forecast the crop.
