Miller Research - Maintaining Idaho’s Legendary Potato Status

Redox Grows

About this episode

One of every three U.S. potatoes is grown in Idaho, and the industry has a well-earned reputation of quality and abundance.

Miller Research is a 50-year-old family business that contributes to that success. Their work, combined with others in the scientific community, led to a near doubling of Russet Burbank potato yields over the last 50 years.

Terry Miller and his son, Jeff, have rich academic backgrounds, which help them carry out crucial research for growers and companies at their office and research farm in Idaho’s Minidoka County.

It’s a great industry,” remarked Jeff Miller, company President, CEO and Principal Field Investigator. “These are very down-to-earth people, men and women who are very passionate about what they do. They love what they do. It’s more than just a job."

Miller Research works in a wide variety of areas, including efficacy of crop protection materials.
