FERTILIZING OF POTATO. WHEN AND HOW TO FERTILIZE (on an example of CENTRAL ASIA)

           Rotted manure and mineral fertilizers are used for Potato plant. 
          Under the early potato manure is put in the fall, under the winter potato – at preparation of lot for planting the tubers. Phosphate fertilizers are used in the fall when lot is digging, potash fertilizers - in the fall and spring, and nitrogen fertilizers - in the spring. It is necessary to avoid the use of potassium chloride. The fact that the chlorine, which is in the composition of this fertilizer, has a harmful effect on potato plants, so where possible, be replaced the potassium chloride by fertilizer without chlorine forms, such as potassium sulfate. This increases the starch of tubers, and hence the nutritional value of potatoes. Early potatoes are usually fed once with ammonium nitrate after shoots appear: 0.8-1kg of fertilizer per 100m2.  For accelerate maturation and improve the yield and starch content in tubers of potato, some growers are used foliar application of aqueous extract of phosphorus fertilizer once or twice during the ripening of the potato, but for 20-30 days before harvest. 1kg of superphosphate infusion (on 10-20liters of water) is used per 100m2. 
            If the site annually fertilized with manure, lush greens growing, but little is tuber, it necessary to stop the manure. In the spring should be dug as deeply as possible. If, however, will grow lush, dark greens, it is necessary to feed the plant with potassium sulfate and superphosphate (2kg per 100m2).

EARLY HARVEST POTATOES. Agricultural practices (on an example of Central Asia)

To get an early potato, tubers germinated in the light, with a short (1-2cm), strong shoots are placed in rows on baskets or in boxes on the bottom of which pre-poured 2 - 3cm layer of humus, mixed with sawdust in half. Each row of tubers is cowered with layer of the same mixture. And so, to the fifth and seventh rows. After that filled containers sprinkled with water at room temperature, so as to wet the bottom layer of the soil, and put in a room with a temperature of 15-17°C. After a day or two the tubers are abundantly watered with fertilizer solution (20g of potassium salt and 60g of superphosphate in a bucket of water). If there is no chemical fertilizers, for the same amount of water can put a glass of the ash. Two days later, fertilizing watering is repeated. Tubers are planted in the sixth or seventh day after laying them in baskets (boxes) with a mixture of humus. 
First, each hollow is put humus soil. Thoroughly mix the soil in hollow with the fertilizer. Carefully, germinated tubers are removed from the basket (box) and planted. Planting is watered and sprinkled with straw, dry soil. Further care of the plants as usual. 
There is another way of processing with nutrient solution before planting.100kg of tubers need solution of 0.2kg of super phosphate, 1g of boric acid and 1g of copper sulfate (blue vitriol).

WHEN AND HOW TO PLANT POTATO (on an example of Central Asia). What are tubers?

The potato demands well processed soft soil. At spring planting it is better to place after root crops, cucurbitaceous cultures, late-ripening cabbage, and at summer planting - after cropping of early vegetables, vegetable peas. For accelerate maturing of a potato and to get the big crop, tubers approximately one month prior to planting are sprouted. For this purpose tubers in weight 60-80g are selected and scattered them on a floor in light heat (12 - 15°С) premise.
Up to planting time on tubers short fragile potato sprouts are emerged on red - or blue-violet colour.
For obtain an early potato, tubers are sowed in the end of February - the beginning of March, depending on area.
A late potato is planted in June.
In southern areas of the meadow-bog soils, slowly drying out in the spring, tubers can be sowed as overwintering plant - in November-December. Delay with planting brings to decrease in productivity of a potato crop.
Planting distances are: 70cm between rows and 20-25cm between plants in rows. Norm of planting is - 25-35kg per 100м2 depending on the size of a tuber. Depth of planting of a potato in February-March - 6-8cm, in June - 12-16cm, towards the winter - 18-20cm (in the spring topsoil on overwintering potato crop was reduced to 8-10cm). In places planting, hollows are done. In everyone hollow put two or three handfuls of compost. Fertilizer is mixed with soil and tubers are put in the hollows.
Then the hollows covered with earth, carried furrow irrigation and mulching with humus, a film, and when summer planting sprinkled with straw, dry ground. 
With the shortage of seed material, tubers can be cut into pieces, so for each of them had two or three buds. At summer planting tubers can not cut on parts. The most common early, middle and middle-early potato varieties:
             - Priekule early,
- Sedov,
- Berlichingen, 
- Lorch, 
- Falenskiy.
Potato varieties recommended for planting in the spring: 
- Priekule early 
- Sedov,
 
- Falenskiy,
 
- Zarafshan
 
- Ural early,
 
- Belarus early,
 
- Berlichingen,
 
- Lorch.
For summer planting all varieties (except middle) are suitable.
Middle- and especially late potato varieties can not be used for spring planting.
 They do not have time to form a crop before the summer heat. 
Priekule early - high-yielding, white potatoes, starch - about 15%. Plants are resistant to cancer, but can sick with macrosporose. 
Sedov - early, high-yielding, resistant to degeneration, is also suitable for late and summer plantings. Tubers are round, large, white, good taste, their starch is low.
 Tubers are stored well. 
Berlichingen - sort of middle potato, fruitful, resistant to cancer and is quite resistant to scab, degeneration. Fresh tubers are suitable for planting. Tubers are red, oval, delicious, starchy is average. Tubers are stored well. 
Lorch - sort of middle potato, high yielding, zoned in all Central Asia republics. Tubers are large, round, oval, white, starchy, delicious. 
Falenskiy is middle-early, fruitful sort. Tubers are oblong-oval, white, average starchy, good taste. Tubers are rather good stored.
