A true celebration was experienced by schoolchildren from four rural communities in Huancavelica when they received the printed version of the children’s story “The Powerful potatoes”, a publication intended for the little ones to learn why iron-enriched potatoes should be consumed to prevent anemia.
“The Powerful potatoes” tells the story of a small town that overcame anemia thanks to the consumption of a potato rich in iron and other foods rich in this mineral.
