Seed potato is a commonly used term in agriculture for a potato saved for planting. However, there are several synonyms that refer to the same concept. One of the most common is "seed spud," which is predominantly used in the United Kingdom. Another synonym is "potato set," which comes from the practice of cutting seed potatoes into sections, with each segment being a set. Other terms that can be used interchangeably with seed potato include "seed tater," "seed tuber," and "planting potato." These synonyms help farmers and gardeners to more accurately describe the potatoes that they intend to use for planting and ensure a successful yield.
