Research

Utilization of Stoller Products in Russet Burbank Potato

AUTHOR: Jeremy Green

ABSTRACT

Potatoes are grown across the United States for two primary markets, 1) baking, mashing, frying, and 2) chipping. A trial was established with the North Central Research Station near St. John, MI to understand how an abiotic stress mitigation product, Bio-Forge® Advanced, could influence the overall yield of Russet Burbank potatoes when applied at various timings in the plant cycle with and without additional nutrition. The data presented in the report show a significant increase in potato yield when Bio-Forge Advanced was applied in-furrow. The results point to the fact that potatoes can be influenced early in the season; however, more data is needed to understand what product may be needed in the season for potatoes.
