Abstract  `Kiwitea' is a new early-mid season maturing potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) that has been developed mainly for the french fry industry. Tubers are round-oval to oval in shape and have white flesh. Sugar levels are generally low. `Kiwitea' is sufficiently early maturing to process well from the field as a second early potato, and also stores well for later processing out of storage.

Keywords  Solanum tuberosum; potato; Kiwitea; new cultivar; cultivar release
