Seed potatoes
Early potatoes
Early and very early varieties of potatoes belong to table potatoes, which are characterized by a thin skin and are thus intended for earlier consumption. However, thanks to this, they contain more protein and water, less starches than late potatoes, which is why they are very popular with consumers. AGRICO Bohemia s.r.o. offers several varieties of early potatoes characterized by high quality and a large yield of marketable tubers.
Semi-late / late potatoes
Semi-late and late consumption potatoes are characterized by a higher dry matter content, good consumption quality and long storage time. Thanks to their properties, they are preferred for frying and for the production of chips and flakes. They are characterized by high resistance to potato diseases.
Starchy potatoes
Late varieties are often characterized by a high content of dry matter and thus a good yield of starch. In addition to industrial processing, these flourier varieties are also popular for the production of potato chips.
Bio potatoes
Last but not least, the company AGRICO Bohemia s.r.o. also distributes varieties suitable for organic cultivation. It offers them in all brewing types (A, B, C) and at the same time in all types of earliness (early, semi-early, late).
Seed potatoes: The key to a successful potato crop
Seed potatoes are the basis of successful potato cultivation. They are specially selected tubers intended for planting.
They ensure high quality and yield of the potato crop. In this section we will tell you more about the key aspects of selecting, preparing and caring for seed potatoes.
Biological properties of potatoes
Sprouting
The tuber begins to develop shoots. This is the beginning of a new plant.
Vegetative growth
The plant grows above the ground. Develops leaves and stems for photosynthesis.
Tubers formation
New tubers are beginning to form underground. They grow and mature.
Selection of suitable varieties
Selection criteria
Disease resistance, yield and tuber quality are key factors in variety selection.
Regionální přizpůsobení

Preparation of seed potatoes
1
Selection of healthy tubers
Choose tubers without signs of disease, cracks or damage. Quality planting is the basis of success.

Convent process
Large tubers can be divided into smaller parts. Each part must have at least one healthy eye.

Tuber treatment
Using fungicides and pesticides will give your seed potatoes a better start.
Storage and preservation
Maintain a temperature of 4-6 °C and humidity around 85%. Store in a dark environment.
Provide sufficient ventilation. Regularly check and sort stored tubers.
Store ideally 3-4 months before planned planting. A longer time may affect the quality of the seedling.
Seed potato planting techniques
Plant in the spring after the last frost. Watch the weather forecast for optimal timing.
Rows, strip or row planting. Each method has its advantages depending on the type of soil and equipment.
Plant 10-15 cm deep. Maintain spacing of 30-40 cm in a row and 60-70 cm between rows.
Caring for seed potatoes during growth
Irrigation
Fertilization
Protection
