Wet, humid conditions are leading to the worst season for late blight on potatoes on P.E.I. in years.

Provincial agriculture officials report 30 cases of late blight so far this summer in Island potato fields. Last year at this time, there were just two.

"We've had above normal rainfall. We've had a number of days with mist in the morning and those high humidity and rainfall events are favourable for late blight,"Greg Donald, general manager of the P.E.I. Potato Board, told CBC News Monday.
