Potato production involves many critical stages — seed selection, land preparation, planting, pest control, irrigation, harvest, and storage.
Now that your tubers are safely stored, it’s time to focus on maximizing your return on investment. Every crop, variety, and end-use demands careful management to ensure your potatoes exit storage with minimal loss and optimal value.
This webinar provides insights into storage management and will cover the following topics:
- Definition of shrink, causes of shrink, management approach to shrink
- Storage management of processing potatoes focusing temperature regimes of curing, cooling and holding period, carbon dioxide and condensation management practices.
- Is September the new August? How can we manage better through heat waves at storage harvest?
