New Methods Of U P Potato Culture
Old timers in the Upper Peninsula may notice fewer lived-in potato patches as new practices improve yields. Excess rainfall and northwest winds bring moisture that aids crops, with one inch of rain per acre for a 20 bushel crop equating to heavy water needs. Michigan State College advises level fields to reduce evaporation and protect tubers, plus shallow soil mounding after growth begins to guard against sun and light frost. Growers using these methods were among the state's most successful last year.
