Start of the seed potato export season
The Netherlands has the perfect climatic conditions for seed potatoes. Of the more than 950,000 tons of seed potatoes produced in the Netherlands, more than 70% is intended for export. HOV Harlingen handles part of this export.
The regular export season runs from mid-October to mid-February, during which various refrigerated ships are loaded with seed potatoes as palletized cargo. The majority of this cargo goes to the Mediterranean and Africa.
