The potato is, undoubtedly, a native of South America where it was in cultivation by the natives long before the discovery of America. It originated in the central Andean region of South America, but there is controversy concerning the original home of the plant as to whether it was in Chile or in Peru and Bolivia. There is also some doubt as to whether the potato was introduced into North America from Europe, or brought directly from South America by Spanish explorers.
