Yield of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) depending on the conditions of production and mass of mother tuber

Abstract

Study the influence the conditions of production and the mass of mother tubers on yield of potato variety Desiree were carried out in the condition of western Serbia (Mačva). The investigation were conducted by planting tuber weight: 50 ± 5 g, 70 ± 5 g, 90 ± 5 g and 110 ± 5 g in 2007. and 2008. year. The results show that the conditions of production had very significant impact on total yield and yield of potato marketable tubers. The mass of mother tuber significantly affected on total yield, while affect on yield of marketable tubers was not established. In both years of investigation the largest tuber yield was obtained by planting the biggest tuber weight (110 g). Higher total yield tubers in the conditions of semiarid climate in western Serbia (Mačva) are achieved by planting larger mass of mother tubers.

Istraživanje uticaja uslova proizvodnje i mase matične krtole na prinos krompira sorte Desiree obavljena su na području zapadne Srbije (Mačve) tokom 2007. i 2008. godine. Ispitivanja su izvedena sadnjom krtola mase 50 ± 5 g, 70 ± 5 g, 90 ± 5 g i 110 ± 5 g. Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju da su uslovi proizvodnje vrlo značajno uticali na ukupan prinos i prinos tržišnih krtola krompira. Masa matične krtole je značajno uticala na ukupan prinos krtola, dok je izostao uticaj na prinos tržišnih krtola. U obe godine istraživanja najveći prinos krtola dobijen je sadnjom najkrupnije frakcije mase (110 g). Veći prinosi krompira u uslovima semiaridne klime zapadne Srbije (Mačve) postižu se sadnjom matičnih krtola veće krupnoće.
