Potato
Potato production and yield risk discussions found in these pages are specific for sprinkler-irrigated potato crops planted in north central Florida. Seasonal climate forecasts can be used to help producers improve nitrogen and irrigation management as well as evaluate potential impacts of planting dates on yield.
Check the following topics for more information:
- County Yield Database
- Historical yield records based on the USDA-NASS database.
- Yield Risk Forecast
- Yield and N leaching potential based on climate forecast, planting dates, and nitrogen management. The results are based on crop model simulations and are only available for Suwannee County in north Florida.
- Growing Degree Days
- Forecasts of degree day accumulations that can be used to predict crop development and potential critical dates such as flowering or maturity.
- Extension Resources & Links
- Links to existing potato-related online extension publications and external potato web sites, including growers' associations, industry organizations, and market related web sites.
