Abstract:
There is a huge gap in the demand and production of potato in the state of Odisha. One of the main causes of low potato productivity in the state is the short and mild winter during the growing period. In the present experiment with two planting dates and four varieties, 26th November emerged as the best planting date with a maximum tuber yield of 552.3 g./plant total yield of tubers. Kufri Pukhraj was found to be the best variety with 604.4 g./ plant total yield of tubers.
