Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Potato is a crop grown on all inhabited continents of the globe. It is included in the top five crops of the world, used as staple food in several countries, and the number of people daily consuming the potato may surpass one billion. Despite the high quantities of seed potato produced worldwide, there are yield gaps due to challenges such as abiotic stresses, pests, climate change and poor production practices. A region-wide critical analysis of yield declining factors can help formulate management strategies that can improve potato yields. Bridging yield gaps in potato will ultimately ensure the role of this crop in securing current and future food security. Potato Production Worldwide presents information on this global crop from its history, morphology, and taxonomy to the growth and development of the potato crop, including the latest strategies in addressing today's biotic and abiotic challenges. This book identifies the reasons for yield gaps in various potato production regions of the world, as well as presenting the best production practices, pest management strategies and approaches to deal with climate change from the perspective of potato production. Chapters provide important insights into potato production cultures and approaches in the major potato production countries. Potato Production Worldwide will be a valuable resource for researchers, scientists and students seeking a comprehensive view of successful potato production. - Provides comprehensive information on the origin, history, taxonomy, morphology, ecophysiology, growth and development of the potato - Addresses production practices, including irrigation, nutrient management, harvesting and post-harvest techniques - Explores the impact of Abiotic stresses (drought, chilling, salinity etc.) and their management

Book excerpt: This book presents an overview of the cultivation of the potato, pointing out some aspects in relation to its production, consumption and importance for consumer health. The aim is to offer a glimpse of the forest rather than the single tree, but not failing to focus on "a few trees". The approach is interdisciplinary, and in this sense the history and the climatic aspects that favour cultivation are highlighted first, ideally starting with contributions on the South-America and then moving eastwards, following the diffusion of the potato in the rest of the world. Some technological aspects are then tackled linked to cultivation, harvest, post-harvest, production and utilisation of potatoes. Lastly some aspects are dealt with, nutritional and not, relating to the importance of potatoes on the health of the consumer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Potato Production in the South Table I shows the annual production and value of the potato crop Of the South by States for the 5 - year period from 1916 to 1920, inclusive. The reason for presenting the figures for each year rather than the average annual production of these several States is to bring out the marked increase in production in 1917, following the short crop and consequent high prices which prevailed for late potatoes in the autumn and winter of 1916 and the spring of 1917. The State of Virginia shows the greatest increase. The production of potatoes in Virginia in 1914 was bushels, but in 1917 it was estimated at bushels, an increase of approximately 172 per cent. Other States show a larger percentage of increase, but not so great an aggregate quantity. This emphasizes one of the great possibilities of the southern potato-production territory in connection with. The food supply of the Nation. When there is a definite shortage of potatoes at the close of the storage season in the North in any particular year, it is perfectly feasible, as was demonstrated in 1917, to increase the acreage of the southern crop to such an extent as to make good in large measure any shortage in the total production which may be required.

Download or read book Potato written by John Reader and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The potato--humble, lumpy, bland, familiar--is a decidedly unglamorous staple of the dinner table. Or is it? John Reader's narrative on the role of the potato in world history suggests we may be underestimating this remarkable tuber. From domestication in Peru 8,000 years ago to its status today as the world's fourth largest food crop, the potato has played a starring--or at least supporting--role in many chapters of human history. In this witty and engaging book, Reader opens our eyes to the power of the potato. Whether embraced as the solution to hunger or wielded as a weapon of exploitation, blamed for famine and death or recognized for spurring progress, the potato has often changed the course of human events. Reader focuses on sixteenth-century South America, where the indigenous potato enabled Spanish conquerors to feed thousands of conscripted native people; eighteenth-century Europe, where the nutrition-packed potato brought about a population explosion; and today's global world, where the potato is an essential food source but also the world's most chemically-dependent crop. Where potatoes have been adopted as a staple food, social change has always followed. It may be "just" a humble vegetable, John Reader shows, yet the history of the potato has been anything but dull.
