Principles of growing potatoes

Potatoes are one of the most popular and popular vegetables grown in Poland.

They are not only low-calorie, but are a real treasure trove of vitamins (especially vitamin C) and minerals such as phosphorus and potassium, as well as a small amount of magnesium, calcium, iron and many others.

The best potato yields will be obtained on soils with a pH of 4.5-6.5, as they are highly adaptable to acidic soils. Too alkaline soil should be avoided as it contributes to the infection of the potato tuber with common scab.

Potatoes are recommended to be grown in crop rotation, optimally in four-year periods.

Novagra offers excellent quality organic-mineral fertilizers, which contain amino acids, plant hormones, vitamins and CARPRAMID colloidal protein with an innovative composition and action, which translates into optimal absorption of nutrients supplied to the plant through the leaves.
