Abstract

This study involved use of six application rates and different methods of NPK fertilization in potato cultivar ’Carrera’ on a leached soil. The highest total yield of potato was obtained under treatment with 1,200 kg/ha NPK 16:16:16 combined with 200 kg/ha CAN. Different methods of NPK treatment gave no significant difference in potato yield at the same fertilizer rate, but the yield was somewhat increased by applying part of the fertilizer pre-plant and part of it in-furrow, compared to the in-furrow treatment with the full application rate at planting.
