There are several ways of seed production methods and each one should have means of preventing many potato diseases. It can be produced from its true seeds in tropical countries because of the warm climate which can cause many diseases. In many countries, the potato is propagated by tubers which have to be proved as disease free in highland areas and commercially be right type.
