Crop Quality and application fertilizer In potatoes, K increases the translocation of carbohydrates from the leaves to the tubers resulting in an increase in the starch content of potatoes K also increases the content of citric acid which reduces the occurrence of black K K+ spot in potatoes
In potatoes, K increases the translocation of carbohydrates from the leaves to the tubers resulting in an increase in the starch content of potatoes. K also increases the content of citric acid which reduces the occurrence of black spot in potatoes. Crop Quality and application fertilizer
