Potatopedia Magazine
Monthly digital flipbook
The best of the three titles each month, with one long feature and one expert interview, as a digital flipbook. Issue 01 is in preparation; it will be announced in the newsletters.
How the newsletters are made
Each item starts from a primary source: a national potato board or statistics office, a plant-health or seed-certification authority, a peer-reviewed paper, or a company's own announcement. We write the summary in our own words, say why it matters, give the key numbers with their source link, and publish each story as its own page under Potato news. News aggregators are never used as a source.
Coverage is global: Europe, the Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania. Every issue is also published on the web, so you can read and share it without an inbox.
Sponsors appear only in labelled places and never touch the news. Read the editorial standards, or see how sponsorship works. Experts can write for us.
