This is how Potato Bingo works
In Potato Bingo, random sales moments are chosen by chance by drawing balls. The harvest year is divided into nine blocks of six weeks each. The drawn ball represents the trading day of that block. Fictionally, the potatoes are sold on that day. The closing quotes on the futures market determine the average bingo price on those trading days.
