Potato cuttings are formed by cutting a 'seed potato' into squares of about 4cm, each square containing one or two 'eyes' - buds. These are planted in order to raise a potato crop.
Certified seed potatoes are used because market or store potatoes will, though perfectly healthy themselves for eating, be susceptible to diseases if grown.
The seed potatoes are left in the light and kept slightly warm until they begin to sprout. This is when they are cut for planting.
Potato trimmings are different: these are what's left over when a potato is peeled for cooking, and are more frequently called potato peel, or peelings.
