Description
A yield trial comparing 30 cultivars of potatoes (Solarium tuberosum L.) was conducted during the 1998 growing season at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, Agricultural and Forestry Experiment S tation ’s (AFES) Palm er Research Center, Matanuska Farm, located six miles west of Palmer, Alaska. A noteworthy change in design of this trial from previous years is the elim ination of a nonirrigated treatment. This change was made in response to grower requests that more emphasis be placed in other research areas. Also, the differences in yield between irrigated and nonirrigated studies, and thus the clear need for systems to supplement rainfall, has been well established by trial results from previous years.
