It was like that in Soviet Union times and still most of post-Soviet people knows my country because of our love to potatoes. We have special Potato breeding institute here and some many local potato varieties, but unfortunately I can send abroad only seeds and it's very hard to wait for them here when everytime we are trying to dig every potato bush before deseases will infect all the yeild.
