Alipurduar Potatoes

Agriculture Confidence: medium

Potatoes are a cash crop of Alipurduar's alluvial plains, listed alongside tea in the district's industrial profile as essential to the district's agrarian economy, and the district's agricultural planning explicitly targets potato production. The plains blocks of the district supply the potato that underpins the region's luchi-aloo breakfast culture. Buyers get farm-fresh Terai potatoes sold in local bazars.

Typical price: ₹30-80

Buying tip: Buy in the bazaar in the late harvest season for the best price per kg; pick firm, un-sprouted tubers.
