Potato Farmers Face New Challenge: GLP-1 Drugs
Prince Edward Island potato farmers face a new challenge as GLP-one drugs impact Canadian eating habits, reducing demand for spuds.

As patents expire, cheaper generics will increase users, further decreasing demand. The industry is exploring innovations to reposition potatoes and maintain market share, potentially capitalizing on trends like the cottage cheese boom.
