Effects of Soil Moisture, Temperature, and Fertility on Yield and Quality of Irrigated Potatoes in the Southern Plains1

J. E. Box, W. H. Sletten, J. H. Kyle and Alexander Pope2

Synopsis: Management of soil moisture by irrigation techniques influenced soil temperature and yield and quality of potatoes. The minimum soil temperature and the highest yield occurred in the every-row irrigated high moisture treatment. Fertility rates higher than 80-0-0 or distance along the irrigation run did not influence tuber yield and grade.
