Abstract
AC Stampede Russet has a maincrop maturity, and the tubers reach maximum size in western Canada in early to mid-September. The tubers are attractive with russet skin, shallow eyes, an oblong shape, and are very uniform in size. The cultivar is suitable for french fry or fresh market (count carton) production. It appears to perform best under irrigated conditions. The cultivar provides the industry with a russet-skinned, dual purpose russet cultivar with high yield, low defect levels, excellent fresh market appeal, and good storage quality for both the french fry and fresh market industries.
