MOSKVORETSKIY

The potato variety Moscowetsky is a mid-season table variety developed by the All-Russian Research Institute of Potato Growing. The plant features upright, tall, and strongly branched bushes with dark green glossy leaves. Flowering is prolonged, with compact and multi-flowered inflorescences. Tubers have a round shape with white skin and flesh, weighing between 47 to 125 grams each. The eyes are small and few, and the skin is slightly netted, giving the product a good appearance.

The variety is characterized by high yield, ranging from 120 to 276 centners per hectare, with maximum yields reaching 347 centners under favorable conditions. The number of tubers per plant reaches 8–14 pieces. Moscowetsky has a high starch content — from 13.9 to 18.5%, making it particularly suitable for chip production. The flesh does not darken when cut, and its culinary type CD allows its use for boiling, baking, and making mashed potatoes. The storage capacity of the variety is 93%, ensuring good harvest storage.

The variety is resistant to viral diseases and potato cancer, but is susceptible to late blight of foliage and tubers. Preferred cultivation regions are the Central region of Russia. Moscowetsky is a reliable choice for farmers and producers aiming to obtain high-quality potatoes with good taste and technological characteristics.
