   Potato prices increased 15 fold!? Is that not a typo? From €10 per tonne to €150 per tonne. I can't help but wonder if a zero wasn't dropped somewhere. If not, this is insane. I hope I'm missing some context somewhere.

      15 fold increase in price and still only 15 cents per kg, that is insane.

         Yeah, was it really 1 cent per kg? That seems hard to believe.

      This data seems wrong. Wholesale potato prices rose 5-7times over 10 years, and actually 2016 was the dip, so more like 5x over the long term
