    Will the potato still produce a crop if the tops of the plant are eaten off by animals?

      I read this question last month and thought good question but I did not have an answer. That night Bambi and a few friends took the tops off my beets. The tops started regrowing in a few days. Just pulled a few now and they are smaller than they should be but still 3 or 4 will make a side dish for two people. Have you dug any of your potatoes to see what is happening down there? IF you tell us then we will all know.
