Background: In sustainable crop production focusing on high-value products, biostimulants have been gaining increasing importance, thus the hypothesis that plant biostimulants could contribute to improving new potatoes quality; Methods: The effects of the seaweed extracts Bio algeen S90 (Ascophyllum nodosum) and Kelpak SL (Ecklonia maxima), as well as the humic and fulvic acids in HumiPlant (leonardite extract) on the tuber quality of very early potato cultivars (‘Denar’, ‘Lord’, ‘Miłek’) were investigated. Potatoes were harvested 75 days after planting (the end of June); Results: The biostimulants did not affect dry matter, protein, total sugars, monosaccharides and sucrose or L-ascorbic acid content in new potatoes. Bio-algeen S90 increased the starch content in tubers of all potato cultivars tested, on average, by 4.8 g∙kg−1 compared with control treatment without biostimulant, whereas Kelpak SL and HumiPlant reduced nitrates content only in tubers of ‘Denar’ cultivar, on average, by 8.50 mg∙kg−1, and increased ascorbate-nitrate index (IAN) by 0.29. The biostimulants did not affect potato after-cooking darkening. Both the nutritional value of new potatoes and after-cooking darkening depended on the cultivar and weather conditions during the potato growing period to a great extent; Conclusions: Plant biostimulants slightly affected quality of new potatoes.

Potato Crops

The response of five potato cultivars to Colletotrichum coccodes was tested in artificially inoculated fields for three consecutive spring and autumn seasons during 1994 to 1996. Significant yield reductions (22 to 30%) were observed in all tested cultivars. Results varied between years, but yield losses were more severe in autumn than in spring. Stem infections of plants were observed 90 days after planting on the surface of the stem and in vascular tissue. C. coccodes inoculation also resulted in reduction of the quality of daughter tubers. Cultivars Cara and Nicola were found to be less susceptible to tuber infection than Alpha, Desiree, and Agria. The incidence of diseased daughter tubers was higher when the soil was infested than when the foliage was inoculated. C. coccodes contamination of dry stems at harvest (in inoculated plots) was relatively high in all cultivars, with no difference between inoculation methods. Thus, C. coccodes infection not only affects potato yield and the quality of potatoes for seed and consumption, but also contaminates soil and serves as an important source of inoculum for future potato crops.

This study was conducted to find out the effect of sprouting inhibitors under different storage temperatures and reconditioning conditions on the processing quality of potato tubers produced in the alpine area of Korea. A higher sprouting ratio was observed in potatoes stored at 15°C than those at 5°C. In particular, 1% CIPC, was effective in the inhibition of sprouting, keeping the sprouted shoots in less than 2 mm, while rosette-shaped shoots, 12–17 mm, were observed in the CMH (100%) treatment. Atlantic was, in general, lower in reducing sugar contents compared to Superior. Reducing sugar contents in potatoes stored at 15°C were not increased, while potatoes stored at 5°C showed a 1% increase in reducing sugar contents for 180 days after storage. As far as chip color “L” value was concerned, no difference was detected among potato cultivars and sprout inhibitor treatments. Potato chip color was found to be the best from potatoes stored at 15°C for 180 days of storage. However, potatoes stored at 5°C gave rise to poor quality of potato chips with browning and bitter taste. Reconditioning had different effects on potato cultivars in that Atlantic potatoes produced more sprouts when they were reconditioned compared to the control of 15°C potato storage. In terms of the effect of reconditioning on reducing sugar contents, Atlantic sugar contents was reduced reconditioning went on. Sugar contents of Superior, however, was increased after undergoing the decrease for some time. Changes in potato chip color as influenced by reconditioning were in accordance with changes in reducing sugar. Atlantic was much better in chip color than Superior, showing a chip color “L” value of more than 50 in all treatments.

Water shortage and drought are a growing problem in Europe. Therefore, effective methods for limiting its effects are necessary. At the same time, the “field to fork” strategy adopted by the European Commission aims to achieve a significant reduction in the use of plant protection products and fertilizers in the European Union. In an experiment conducted in 2018–2020, the effect of the method of foliar fertilization containing silicon and potassium on the yield and technological quality of sugar beet roots was assessed. The fertilizer was used in seven combinations, differing in the number and time of application. The best results were obtained by treating plants during drought stress. The better soil moisture for the plants, the smaller the pure sugar yield increase was observed. It is difficult to clearly state which combination of silicon and potassium foliar application is optimal, as their effects do not differ greatly.
