early potato, quality, production, total dry matter
In the 2023-2024 agricultural years, research was carried out on the behavior of four potato varieties for early consumption, in the conditions of the sandy soils at SCDCPN Dabuleni. The potato varieties studied showed different results in the years of study, depending on their biological potential and pedoclimatic conditions. After harvesting at 75 days, in 2023 the varieties Prada (which achieved a production of 46.30 t/ha) and Riviera, which achieved an average production of 46.23 t/ha, stood out, and in 2024, the Carrera and Riviera varieties stood out with an estimated production of 46.98 t/ha and 45.19 t/ha, respectively. From a qualitative point of view, in terms of the starch content of the tubers, the Riviera variety stood out with 15.16%, the average being 14.08%, and the total dry matter was between 17.61% for the Natalia variety and 22.84% for the Carrera variety, with an average of 18.94%. The vitamin C content varied according to the analyzed variety, the Prada variety standing out with 16.72 mg. f.s., the average for the five varieties being 12.49 mg.f.s.
