Indian potato farmers pack potatoes in Gajipur

  An Indian potato farmer carries a sack of potatoes in a field in Gajipur, about 50 km away from Kolkata, capital of eastern Indian state West Bengal, March 19, 2015. Potato production in the state was in excess of 110 lakh tonnes coupled with weak demand from neighbouring states, triggering a price crash in Bengal. This led to the suicides of four farmers over the past seven days, report said. (Xinhua/Tumpa Mondal)
