Abstract

The research was carried out in 2014–2016 in two sites in Poland: Experimental Station IUNG in Osiny on the heavier soil and in the Plant Breeding and Acclimatization Institute in Jadwisin on the lighter soil. Potatoes were grown in both locations in two production systems, i.e. organic and integrated. The studies evaluated 6 potato cultivars belonging to two groups of earliness: early and mid early. The aboveground mass was determined in the fullness of plant development, and the crop yield during the harvest. The harvest index — HI was defined as the share of tuber mass in the total above and underground mass. It was found that the harvest index yield factor of potato plants was the most influenced by the varietal factor. The production system and soil and climatic conditions did not affect the size of this indicator. The range of this indicator was wide and ranged from 50 to 83%, which means that under favorable conditions up to 83% of assimilates can be located in tubers.
