- Intervention effect Increasing potassium fertilizer to 80 kg K2O/fed increased potato shoot growth, carbohydrate concentration, and ion percentage versus control in both seasons.
- Intervention effect The highest reported values occurred with 40 kg K2O/fed versus untreated plants in both seasons.
- Intervention effect Effective microorganisms increased potato shoot growth, carbohydrate concentration, and ion percentage versus control in both seasons.
- Intervention effect Seaweed extract increased potato shoot growth, carbohydrate concentration, and ion percentage versus control in both seasons.
- Intervention effect The 40 kg K2O/fed, effective microorganism, and 500 mg/l seaweed extract combination gave the highest value versus control in both seasons.
