Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Tuber yield, skin colour and dry matter content were higher in the winter-spring crop than in the summer-autumn crop.
- Observation Spunta and Arinda potatoes performed well within each crop season.
- Observation Ninfa potatoes showed an important yield loss in autumn.
- Intervention effect Delaying tuber harvest until leaf senescence increased yield in both off-season potato crops.
- Intervention effect Delaying tuber harvest until leaf senescence improved tuber dry matter content and skin colour in both off-season potato crops.
- Intervention effect Delaying tuber harvest significantly decreased tuber nitrate contents in the winter-spring crop.
- Intervention effect Delaying tuber harvest increased tuber nitrate contents in the summer-autumn crop.
- Association Ninfa potatoes showed less tendency than Arinda and Spunta to accumulate nitrate in tubers.
