Farmers from northwest Mosul have complained that their potato crop has been heavily damaged by an unknown infection. Just two days ago something similar happened to the tomato crop in southern Iraq.
Shikhan and Gubba villages are known for producing significant amounts of potatoes that are distributed to local markets across Iraq. The price of potatoes has gone up significantly since reports of the damage.
