Allan Stevenson

NFU Potato Policy Group member

For the past 46 years Allan has been involved in producing and storing maincrop potatoes for supermarket and export markets. Allan's involvement is very hands on; he has driven a harvester for 35 years and still plants around half of his crop.

Allan is very concerned for the future of the potato sector and was a member of the Potato Marketing Board for the last 18 months of its existence, he then became a founding member of the British Potato Council and continued in that role for nine years.

When the NFU Potato Forum was launched he was happy to be a part of it and has continued into the newly constituted Potato Policy Group.
