P. J. A. M. Mulders, E. R. V. D. Heuvel, et al.

This study conducted by Puck J. A. M. Mulders, Edwin R. van den Heuvel, M. J. G. (René) van de Molengraft, W. P. M. H. (Maurice) Heemels, and Pytrik Reidsma reveals that extreme weather events, such as drought and heavy rainfall, account for a staggering 98% of year-to-year potato yield fluctuations in the Netherlands. High-intensity rainfall was found to reduce yields by 36%, while drought caused a 13% reduction, emphasizing the urgent need for adaptive strategies.
