	The poisonous potato is a rare [[Minecraft:drop]] when harvesting (destroying) [[Minecraft:potato crop]]s; a fully grown plant has a 2% chance of dropping one in addition to the 2–5 regular potatoes.

The poisonous potato is a rare [[Minecraft:drop]] when harvesting (destroying) [[Minecraft:potato crop]]s; a fully grown plant has a 2% chance of dropping one in addition to the 2–5 regular potatoes. Using a tool with [[Minecraft:Fortune]] has no effect on the drop rate.

			If a [[Minecraft:farmer]] [[Minecraft:villager]] breaks a potato crop, a poisonous potato can still drop, but the villager will not collect the [[Minecraft:item]]. Therefore, together with an automatic collection system, the process of farming poisonous potatoes can be automated.
