potato cultivation

The first potato plant was planted more than 7,000 years ago in southern Peru and the plant has only one source.

Scientists have selected a suitable potato variety for processing. Those are Atlantic, Megechip, Beacon chipper varieties.

Ms. Tran Thi Hang, Director of Lao Cai Agriculture-Forestry Seed Center, said that the Center has just bred and successfully produced the disease-free Atlantic super-potato variety

The potato plantation model tested with minimal tillage method with straw after three years of implementation has proved to be superior to previous traditional methods.
