Development Of Crop Management Strategies For Improved Productivity And Quality Of Potatoes Grown On Highly Acid Soils
This project was undertaken to study the effect of soil acidity on potato yield, quality and chemical composition. The specific objectives of the study were to determine the effects of ameliorating acidity on: tuber yield and size distribution, quality factors including specific gravity, french fry and crisp colour, after cooking darkening and internal browning disorders, cadmium accumulation in tubers and incidence of disorders.
