A Lebanese farmer has grown a giant, weighing more than 11 kilograms of potato and wants to, so that the tuber was entered in the Guinness Book of Records – AFP reported. – This potato weighs 11,3 kilo – said the 56-year-old Khalil Semhat of Suru, in the south of Lebanon. Now he intends to apply for an entry in the record book. To be able to displace the tuber, about the size of three human heads, Mr. Semhat had to ask a friend for help. – I have been working in the field since childhood and this is the first time this has happened to me – he spoke. The farmer added, that he does not use any chemicals in the cultivation. The Lebanese man is very proud of his achievement. W 2006 his land, where he grows bananas in addition to potatoes, was bombed in an Israeli air raid.
