Demo ware potatoes

You are growing ware potatoes

  • You grow potatoes in a 1:4 rotation.
  • You had a field sampled for PCN with and AMex200: 1/3 ha sampling, result 900 living larvae and eggs per 200 cc, an infestation that hardly expected to cause damage in the first following crop.
  • The species analysis you had carried out showed the presence of Pa as well as Ro.
  • Available cultivars:
