Transcript RLO Selection of Vareities for Potato Cultivation for upload

Introduction
•
Potato variety for cultivation can be selected according to the
soil and climatic conditions as well as market demand and
susceptibility to disease like potato blights, which causes
maximum damage to the potato crop.
•
Potato varieties used for chips making have uniform tuber
size, shape and flat eyes. These varieties are generally low in
reducing sugars which can avoid browning in chips.
