Abstract
Neither WEX, a multipurpose wetting agent, nor Agrispon, a cultured biological product, influenced potato foliage or tuber yields or tuber specific gravity. The beneficial effects of N application to potatoes grown on Knik silt loam were also demonstrated.
Resumen
Ni WEX, un agente humectante de propósito multiple, ni AGRISPON, un producto de cultivo biológico, afectaron al follaje de la papa o al rendimiento de tubérculos tampoco fue afectado el peso específico del tubérculo. Los efectos benéficos de la aplicación de N al cultivo de papas en suelos franco limosos del tipo “Knik” quedó simultáneamente demostrada.
