THE POTATO PEOPLE

In Bokkos, Plateau State, generations have built their lives around Irish potato farming.

A single healthy plant can produce an extraordinary harvest. But a good beginning does not always guarantee one.

Farmers who remember harvesting hundreds of bags now speak of declining yields, disease, access to quality seed and an increasingly uncertain future.

Yet the story does not end on the farm.

Potatoes harvested here move through traders, markets, homes and communities far beyond Bokkos. Behind every bag is a farmer. Behind every harvest is a family. Behind the numbers are people.

This is their story.
