“…The Viking potato also is a relatively new potato variety released in 1963 by the North Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (Johansen et al, 1964). Viking potatoes have mid-season maturity, are oblong round in shape, and have a smooth medium red to bright red skin color.…”

Clearwater Russet: A Dual-Purpose Potato Cultivar with Cold Sweetening Resistance, High Protein Content, and Low Incidence of External Defects and Sugar Ends

et al. 2010

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Clearwater Russet is a medium-late maturing, russet-skinned, potato cultivar suitable for processing or fresh pack. It is notable for having a low incidence of external defects that contributes to its high U.S. No 1 yield relative to the dual-purpose industry standard, Russet Burbank. Clearwater Russet also maintains low glucose concentrations in its tubers during long-term storage making it an exceptional processing variety. With its low incidence of sugar ends and cold-induced sweetening resistance, Clearwater Russet can be stored at a temperature of 7.2°C for up to 250 days without the need for reconditioning; fry color from this storage regime is consistently ≤1.0 (USDA Fry Color Scale). This cultivar is also notable for its high tuber protein content, which was 33% greater than that of Russet Burbank. In full-season trials conducted over a 3-year period in California, Colorado, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington, Clearwater Russet had total yields slightly lower than Ranger Russet and Russet Burbank, but averaged 1% and 33% higher U.S. No. 1 yields, respectively, across all states. Average specific gravity of Clearwater Russet is comparable to Ranger Russet and significantly higher than Russet Burbank.
