Five year-old Lucy names new Branston potato variety

The competition, organised by Branston, was part of the Celebration of Food and Farmers held recently at the Eden Project. Children were invited to suggest a name for a new potato variety based on a traditional Peruvian species. The new potato is the result of several years of collaboration between Branston and the Scottish Crop Research Institute (SCRI). Previously known only as 00.H.14 A3, the potato will now, thanks to Lucy, be taken forward to National Listing with the proposed name of 'Inca Bella'.
