Evaluation of hydroponic systems for pre-basic seed potato production.
The conventional methods of pre-basic seed potato production, besides the low multiplication rates and risks of plant infection by different soil pathogens, are generally harmful to the environment, due to the use of chemical products for the soil desinfestation. The development of new methods of seed production is then necessary to increase the availability of good quality seeds. The results concerning potato seed production in hydroponic systems indicate that this technique can be an alternative to the conventional production methods. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of hydroponic systems for pre-basic seed potato production.
