Imitation is the greatest form of flattery, and one state is doing its very best to emulate Idaho's success in agriculture. We all know what happens when you meet someone who finds out you live in Idaho; they ask you about our state's most famous crop, the Idaho Potato.

Now one state wants to hone in on Idaho's potato pie, and the state is not Maine but a close neighbor to the Gem State. Maine is a state that, although it is not as well known as Idaho, produces a massive amount of potatoes.

Can you Name the top 10 Potato Producing States?

Here's a look at the top 10 potato producers in America.

Idaho Governor Responds To Oregon Potato Challenge

Oregon? Potatoes? Really?

Oregon Live broke down the comparison between the Oregon and Idaho's potato production.

“More than 2.7 billion pounds of potatoes are grown annually” in Oregon, according to a statement submitted by Sen. Bill Hansell, R-Athena, and the state is responsible for “nearly 25% of all french fries exported from the U.S.”

Idaho, on the other hand, is the top potato producer in the country and produces around 13 billion pounds of potatoes each year, according to the Idaho Potato Commission."

Idaho is the dominant player compared to any other state. Does our legislature need to respond with similar legislation? We'll keep you posted as this story develops.
