Stichting De Bildtse Aardappelweken heeft een oeraardappelras geadopteerd.

Voor 5000 dollar is de stichting eigenaar geworden van oerras 700247, een aardappel uit Peru.

De genen van deze oerpieper liggen opgeslagen in de Wereldzaadbank op Spitsbergen.


Daar liggen tienduizenden zaden van – voornamelijk uitgestorven – voedselgewassen opgeslagen.

Teun de Jong van de aardappelstichting: ,,Wij zijn pas de eerste in Nederland die dit doet. En dat als aardappelland!''
