Premiere is widely used for early french fries and chip production.
With oval tubers, yellow skin and pale yellow flesh, it has established itself within the processing and chipping markets for its ease of preparation (shallow eyes allowing for easy peeling). It’s regular tuber shape also makes it straight forward for grading, washing and packing.
Premiere delivers excellent pack out yields, overcoming years when poorer tuber numbers prevail. As an early variety one of Premiere’s greatest strengths is its ability to develop good dry matters sufficiently early, to meet demand from processors for new season crop. Premiere has a proven record for early cultivation and harvest.
