Potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.)
Original language description
In the area of potato production, targeted research solving concrete and actual problems of potato producers runs on Czech University of Life Sciences in Prague. In last few years, we were focused on production of new potatoes designated for early harvest and we were focused on capitalization of yielding and qualitative characteristics of coloured potato variety. These findings were further utilized and transferred to the system of organic farming. Firstly, we watched the influence of organic farming on yield and quality of tubers. Ecological way of cultivation had strong negative influence on yield (decrease of 36 %). From qualitative characteristics, organic farming increased the content of polyphenols (by 10.2 %), decreased the content of nitrates (by 11.0 %) and decreased the content of reducing sugars (by 22.0 %). We also evaluated the possibilities and impacts of mulch on potato cultivation. The mulch on top of ridges affected the temperature of soil (it increased it by 0.2 – 0.6 °C under black
