Abstract: In order to clarify the feasibility of the cultivation technology of potato covered with rice husk instead of rice straw in the seedling raising shed of rice, four treatments were set up in the experiment,containing rice husk covering thickness of 15 cm, rice husk covering thickness of 10 cm, rice straw covering
thickness of 15 cm and rice straw covering thickness of 10 cm. The seedling emergence rate, green potato rate,
commercial potato rate, yield and other indicators of potato covered were measured and compared. The results
showed that when the thickness of rice husk was 15 cm, the potato emergence rate was 93.2%, the green potato
rate was the lowest, and the commercial potato rate (88.26%) and yield (1 840.60 kg per 667 m2
) were the
highest. It was suggested that it be popularized and applied in northeast China. |
