Potato Armada

The potato variety ARMADA belongs to the mid-early table types with a maturity period of 70-80 days, allowing harvest as early as July. The plants are semi-upright, intermediate type, with large elongated-oval tubers weighing from 90 to 130 grams. The tuber marketability reaches 81.9%, indicating high quality and attractiveness to consumers. The variety is distinguished by high yield — from 600 to 700 centners per hectare, making it a popular choice among gardeners and farmers.

ARMADA has strong immunity and resistance to pests and diseases such as golden cyst-forming potato nematode and potato cancer pathogen. This significantly reduces the risk of crop loss and reduces the need for intensive use of chemical protective agents. Moreover, the variety is low-maintenance and well-adapted for cultivation in the Central and Northwest regions, expanding its cultivation geography.

To protect ARMADA potato from a complex of pests and diseases during the vegetation period, it is recommended to use systemic and contact insecticide-fungicide protectants. Such agents effectively combat soil pests in early plant development stages and protect against diseases including rizoctonia, late blight, and wet rot. This contributes to maintaining plant health and improving crop quality.
