Though number of improved table cultivars of potato are being introduced in Assam, the indigenous potato cultivars remain the more preferable ones among the consumers. The reason being the lesser cooking time with enriched taste, longer storability and more nutritional value.

A brief study has also been done on cropping systems followed, post-harvest handling and storage of potato.
