Jacket potatoes, commonly known as baked potatoes, typically refer to the variety of potato that is baked with its skin on. In Gambia, agriculture is primarily focused on staple crops such as rice, millet, and groundnuts, and while potatoes can be grown, they are not a major crop. The climate in Gambia may support potato cultivation, but the local farming practices and preferences lean towards other crops. Therefore, while it is possible to grow potatoes in Gambia, jacket potatoes are not a significant part of the local agricultural landscape.
Potatoes originally come from South America specifically from the Andes mountains. They were brought to Europe by early Spanish explorers in the 1500's. They were slowly adopted as a staple because they can grow in many types of soil. There are over 4000 kinds of potatoes, all cultivars that trace their origin to Peru and Chile.
