Potatoes are often overlooked by preppers. And I really can’t understand why.
They are cheap, easy to store without electricity, high in carbohydrates (exactly what you need in a crisis) and you can make a lot of dishes, including bread if you want to.
Besides that, potatoes hold the distinction of being one of the easiest and most prolific crops to grow. Not only do they grow well under a range of conditions, and offer the ability to select from a number of different growing media, but in some climates it is possible to get two harvests per year. Potatoes would make one of the best post apocalyptic crops.
