I think there are many variables in this, the size of the potato, the potato it's self, how much of what metal you are using to produce the electrical exchange.

for an experiment I took a large potato just now, I sanded down one side of two pennies so that half was copper and half was zinc, I stuck these pennies deeply into the large potato then tested with a multimeter.

It produced 0.55v at 0.00mA

I'm sure if I had proper copper/zinc rods I might be able to produce better results, but it doesn't seem to be very promising in the mA area.
