With potatoes in high demand and inclement weather playing a role in this year's supply, we spoke with Russell Wysocki, President of RPE, about the current status of the market. RPE is a year-round grower and shipper of potatoes and onions that specializes in providing category leadership that includes both category innovation and best-in-class retail solutions. Mr. Wysocki indicated that because of weather complications in the last several months and high demand, the supply has dwindled much faster than expected. With Wisconsin potatoes now in focus, he expects early volumes to be heavily influenced by both demand and the severe winter storms that are expected to impact growers this week.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
