Abstract

The paper presents the results of both: own research and literature survey about the quality of potato tubers from organic production compared to other production systems, mainly the conventional one. Our study was conducted at the Plant Breeding and Acclimatization Institute — NRI, Branch Jadwisin. The results show a better quality of tubers from organic production: on the one hand a lower content of undesirable components such as: residual pesticides, nitrates, nitrites and heavy metals and on the other hand a higher content of components beneficial for health, such as vitamin C, polyphenols, carotenoids and minerals. Efforts were also made to show that those differences between organic and conventional product important from the nutritional composition point of view should have an positive impact on human health.
