ABSTRACT



The effect of the potato cultivation method (no covering, under Pegas Agro 17 agrotextile from planting to the plant height of 15 cm) and the level of nitrogen fertilization (without nitrogen, 30, 60, 90 kg N·ha-1) on the size and structure of the tuber yield of two very early potato cultivars (‘Aster’, ‘Drop’) was investigated. The potatoes were harvested after 60 and 75 days from planting.

Key words: early potato, agrotextile covers, nitrogen fertilization, tuber yield.
