Potatoes could go up in price by a factor of like 50x before it'd become remotely cost effective to grow them. A productive backyard is going to produce like, what, $20 of potatoes annually?
And basically everybody I know who has attempted potatoes (and sweet potatoes) has pulled up a failed harvest for at least the first year.
There exist people who have highly productive backyard farms. Almost nobody who starts a backyard farm will achieve that within five years.
