“According to the jury’s decision, the title holder for the largest yield this year is Tomislav Jovanović from Čepovi. He produced five wagons per hectare and mainly grows the ‘Mamfis’ and ‘Arizona’ varieties. The award for the largest tuber, weighing 1.6 kilograms, was won by Miroslav Radojičić from Katići, who says that this is not uncommon. The climatic conditions are favorable, and the tradition of cultivation is also maintained. The trophy for the most unusual potato went to Milivoje Zarić. Ivan Stojković was declared the largest producer this year, and Nikola Mutavdžić is the youngest grower, say the organizers of the event.”
