Features of the choice of potato (Solanum tuberosum) varieties when growing two harvests in the temperate zone of Russia

Braz J Biol. 2024 Mar 18;84:e278272. doi: 10.1590/1519-6984.278272. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTThe development of potato plants during the cultivation of two crops occurs in a short period. At the same time, field conditions change and do not repeat over time. The formation of the crop during the cultivation of two crops in the Moscow region turns out to be in different growing conditions: the first crop falls on a long day and moderate temperatures, as well as sometimes returning frosts, the second crop falls on a short day and high temperatures, as well as a lack of moisture. The purpose of our research was to substantiate the choice of varieties for cultivation of two crops. Its solution is possible with a certain guaranteed efficiency based on the theory of statistical games. The research was carried out at the Vegetable Experimental Station of the Moscow State Agrarian University named after K.A. Timiryazev and at the Central Experimental Station of the Barybino Research Institute of Agrochemistry of the Moscow Region 2017-2022. The experiment was laid by the method of random placement of plots, the predecessor was a bow. The planting density is 47.6 thousand plants per 1 ha. Germinated tubers were used for planting during the first planting of a large fraction, during the second planting of an average fraction. The second landing was carried out on the vacant place after cleaning the first landing. The cultivation technology is standard. Cleaning was carried out in mid-Ju...
