Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Prolonged crop growth did not influence emergence, shoot number or plant height of potato.
- Intervention effect Prolonged crop growth did not influence leaf number or leaf area index of potato.
- Intervention effect N application time did not influence emergence, shoot number or plant height of potato.
- Intervention effect N application time did not influence leaf number or leaf area index of potato.
- Intervention effect Crop duration did not affect total or process-grade tuber number, yield or process-grade tuber weight of potato.
- Intervention effect N application time did not affect total or process-grade tuber number, yield or process-grade tuber weight of potato.
- Intervention effect Wider row spacing decreased tuber number and productivity of potato.
- Observation Chip colour and reducing sugars of potato were within acceptable range for all treatment combinations.
- Intervention effect Applying 270 kg N/ha in two equal splits at planting and earthing-up gave 7.5% more returns than 3 splits plus a foliar spray of urea.
- Recommendation Crop duration of 110 days and wider spacing are recommended for harnessing the yield potential and realizing higher returns and benefit cost ratio of potato.
