Effect of Tytanit® on the yield and yield components of very early-maturing potato cultivars [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2017 The growing period for early potatoes is extremely short, only 50-80 days from planting to harvest. To obtain a high marketable tuber yield in such a short period good conditions for plant growth must be ensured.

Possibility of increasing early crop potato yield with foliar application of silicon
Agronomy Science, 2022 This paper analyses the effect of dosage (0.25 dm3 ha–1 or 0.50 dm3 ha–1) and time (the leaf development stage – BBCH 14–16, tuber initiation stage – BBCH 40–41, at both the leaf development stage and tuber initiation stage) of silicon-based stimulant ...
