Theme 2026: Varieties of Life

At Agrico, a variety is more than just a potato. 
It is part of something bigger. Through continuous innovation, international cooperation and knowledge sharing, our varieties connect growers, markets and people across the world.
Developed for different climates, conditions and end uses, they create value throughout the entire potato chain and contribute to food security for a growing world population.
Varieties of life is about more than potatoes. It reflects the variety of people, places, challenges and possibilities that come together around them.
Because a variety
is never just a potato.
