ROOT HEALTH IN POTATOES
Why It Pays to Focus on Root Health
A plant's root system is not only responsible
for water and nutrient uptake, it is especially
critical for crops like potatoes, where healthy
roots support tuber development which
determine both production yield and quality.
" Good root health is vital when plants are in
good condition and even more important
when plants are facing stress from weather,
pests or disease, " said Dr. Mike Thornton,
Extension Plant Physiologist and Professor at
the University of Idaho.
Soil Pests
At least 18 species of nematodes are known
to cause yield and quality issues in the U.S.
Yield losses due to nematode infestation
vary depending on potato cultivar and level
of infestation, but research has shown that
yield loss can range from 19 to 90 percent,
according to a USDA APHIS publication.1
" Growers need to be vigilant and prepared
for nematodes every season, " says Kelly Luff,
Senior Technical Representative for Bayer.
Soil Diseases
Several of the pathogens that cause the
most damage in U.S. potato production
originate
from soilborne
Research has shown
that nematode yield
loss can range from
19 to 90 percent.
A strong root system is
the foundation of potato plant
health and tuber development,
leading to higher quality
and higher yields for
potato growers.
Start with the Seed
Potato growers can build the best foundation for their crops by treating seed
pieces with Emesto®
borne Rhizoctonia and Fusarium (including resistant strains) and Silver scurf.
Protect Against Soilborne Diseases
Serenade®
ASO fungicide can be foliar or soil-applied to provide disease
control against foliar and rhizospheric bacterial and fungal diseases.
Serenade ASO also plays a key role as a root health activator and can
change the interaction between the soil and the plant, leading to healthier
roots and improved, vigorous tubers.
In-season Nematode Management

innovative
combination
from Bayer,
inoculum such
as Rhizoctonia, leading to diseases that
can affect both crop development and
tuber quality.2
Comprehensive Approach
A comprehensive approach to root health
includes both management practices and
product solutions. Bayer has introduced a full
range of solutions that allows potato growers
to get their crops off to a strong start leading
to successful harvests. The comprehensive
program also provides

the V+M Solution provides
a
cost-effective, convenient solution for managing a broad spectrum of insect
and nematode species and several diseases. The V+M Solution combines

Combining effective management
practices from seed treatment
through harvest with a comprehensive
package of
