Opis

Potato is an important cash and food security crop in Eastern Ethiopia. However, the yield of the crop is very low due to a number of constraints.Cultivation of low yielding local cultivars is one of the constraints. Therefore, field experiments were conducted at Haramaya and Hirna with the objective of assessing the morphological characteristics and agronomic performances of local (farmers') and improved potato cultivars during the main cropping season of 2011
