Role of climatic conditions in mechanical damage of potatoes

Original language description

Seven potato varieties were cultivated in 12 localities, that can be classified into two characteristic regions: i) classical higher land region (cooler and more humid) and ii) lower land region (warmer and drier) in 1995-1997. Susceptibility to mechanical damage of the harvested tubers was studied extensively using the pendulum MIDAS 88 PP. The obtained parameter, so call ?Pendulum index? (PI) represents percent part of the tubers not damaged in the test. The obtained results show that season, region and variety significantly influence the pendulum index. PI of the tubers produced in the lower land region was significantly higher (~74 %) in comparison to the higher land region (~61 %). The season played the main role in the obtained PI-values: 87 % (1995), 53 % (1996) and 64 % (1997). Weather variations and extrems have to lead to increasing potato damage.
