Best Answer

The potato late blight caused the Irish potato crops to fail and rot in the fields. This led to what became known as the Great Famine or the Great Hunger, during which there was mass starvation. Starvation and disease, forced many Irish people to emigration from Ireland between 1845 and 1852.
