The Highland Potato Famine (Scottish Gaelic: Gaiseadh a' bhuntàta) was a period of 19th-century Highland and Scottish history (1846 to roughly 1856) over which the agricultural communities of the Hebrides and the western Scottish Highlands (Gàidhealtachd) saw their potato crop (upon which they had become over-reliant) repeatedly devastated by potato blight. It was part of the wider food crisis facing Northern Europe caused by potato blight during the mid-1840s, whose most famous manifestation is the Great Irish Famine, but compared with its Irish counterpart, it was much less extensive (the population seriously at risk was never more than 200,000 – and often much less) and took many fewer lives as prompt and major charitable efforts by the rest of the United Kingdom ensured relatively litt

  • La carestia delle patate in Scozia fu più una grave crisi agricola che una vera e propria carestia, ma la locuzione inglese Highland Potato Famine è d'uso corrente per descrivere questo periodo della storia delle Highland e della Scozia. Una vera carestia fu dietro l'angolo durante tutto il periodo, caratterizzato da grave malnutrizione, malattie, pesanti tracolli finanziari e traumatiche distruzioni dei beni agricoli essenziali. Le cause della crisi furono le stesse che causarono la carestia delle patate in Irlanda all'incirca nello stesso periodo. (it)

  • La hambruna de las papas en las tierras altas (en gaélico escocés, Gaiseadh a' bhuntàta) fue un período de la historia de las Tierras Altas de Escocia durante el siglo XIX (de 1846 a aproximadamente 1856) durante el cual las comunidades agrícolas de las Islas Hébridas y las Tierras Altas escocesas occidentales (Gàidhealtachd) vieron cómo su cosecha de papas (de la que se habían vuelto demasiado dependientes) fue devastada repetidamente por el tizón de la papa. Fue parte de una crisis alimentaria aún más amplia que enfrentó de manera macro el norte de Europa causada por la enfermedad del tizón de la papa a mediados de la década de 1840, cuya manifestación más famosa es la Gran hambruna irlandesa, pero en la hambruna de las patatas en las tierras altas en comparación con su contraparte irlan (es)
  • La famine de la pomme de terre dans les Highlands a été provoquée par le mildiou de la pomme de terre qui a frappé la région écossaise des Highlands dans les années 1840. Bien que le taux de mortalité ait été inférieur à celui d'autres famines écossaises, dans les années 1690 et en 1780, la famine de la pomme de terre des Highlands a poussé plus de 1,7 million de personnes à quitter l'Écosse pendant la période 1846-1852. Cette période du XIXe siècle de l'histoire des Highlands et de l'Écosse est maintenant bien connue en anglais comme la « Highland Potato Famine » (famine de la pomme de terre des Highlands). Cette famine a fortement marqué toute la période, touchant essentiellement les communautés agraires sous divers aspects, malnutrition sévère, maladie grave et crise financière sérieuse (fr)
