- Association Nitrogen and potassium had a significant positive interaction.
- Intervention effect Increasing potassium at each nitrogen level increased tuber yield.
- Intervention effect Increasing potassium at each nitrogen level increased potato nitrogen uptake.
- Intervention effect Increasing potassium at each nitrogen level increased potato potassium uptake.
- Intervention effect Potassium and nitrogen increased large and medium tuber grade yield.
- Intervention effect Potassium and nitrogen decreased small and very small tubers.
- Intervention effect The maximum tuber yield was 39.83 t /ha at the stated nitrogen and potassium rates versus 14.36 t/ ha without either.
