Word Template Generator for Native Potato Catalogs

This code enables the automated generation of Microsoft Word templates using standardized morphological and agronomic characteristics of potato varieties. The templates are designed to support the systematic documentation and characterization of native potato varieties, facilitating the development of structured and reproducible catalogs of agrobiodiversity. The script extracts and organizes trait-level information—such as morphological descriptors, agronomic performance, and variety identifiers—and formats it into predefined Word document templates. These outputs can be used directly for catalog production, reporting, and dissemination, ensuring consistency across varieties and study sites. This tool is particularly relevant for agrobiodiversity monitoring, germplasm characterization, and participatory research initiatives, including citizen science approaches. By automating the creation of standardized variety profiles, the code reduces manual effort, minimizes transcription errors, and improves data harmonization across time and sources. The resulting Word templates can serve as a foundation for native potato catalogs, conservation assessments, and knowledge-sharing products aimed at researchers, conservation practitioners, and local farming communities.
