It has a high nutrient quality that its tuber contains carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins, and essential amino acids. Due to its wide range of uses as a crop for food, feed, and industrial raw materials as well as its recommendation as a food security crop in light of the world's expanding population and associated food supply issues, potato-based production systems present increasingly significant opportunities. Sustainable potato production is critical for future food security and social sustainability. Therefore, scientists and farmers develop strategies to cope with climate change and match crop demands to environmental conditions. This chapter gives an introduction about the origin of the potato and subsequently spread throughout the world and different production systems for potato cultivation. © 2023 Elsevier Inc.
