Effect of soil and water characteristics on yield and properties of ‘Spunta’ potatoes

ABSTRACT Soil texture and its characteristics besides water characteristics can play an eminent role in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) production. Therefore, a soil and water quality index (SWQI, %) was derived to investigate the effect of combination of soil and water characteristics (sodium adsorpt...
