Superior potato

Superior is a white-skinned, white-fleshed, mid-season potato variety.

It was released by the University of Wisconsin potato breeding program in 1962,[1] and is not under plant variety protection.

[2] It is a progeny of a cross between 'B96-56' and 'M59.44' and was first grown in 1951.

Like the potato variety Atlantic, Superior is widely grown for potato chip manufacturing right off the field and marketable yields are fairly high.
