Hi there,
Yoast Primary Category is used when you have multiple categories assigned to a post.
It defines the most important category for SEO and uses that one in the breadcrumb trail.
Overall it just makes things tidier when you have a lot of categories assigned to a single post.
Thanks so much
You're welcome
