SINGAIVKA

The Singaivka potato variety is a mid-late maturing variety distinguished by high drought and virus resistance. The tubers are medium-sized, round, with yellow skin and white flesh, possessing a mealy texture, making this variety particularly attractive for culinary use. Registered in the state registry in 2015, this variety is recommended for cultivation in the forest-steppe zone. Singaivka is characterized by high yield, reaching 198.7 to 216.6 centners per hectare, and up to 450 centners per hectare under favorable conditions at the end of the vegetation period. The starch content is stable and amounts to about 16.9%, dry matter — 24.8–25.1%. Tubers have high marketability — from 91 to 96%, and storability is rated at 7.0–7.4 points, indicating good storage capability. For successful Singaivka cultivation, seed tubers should be planted when soil temperature at a depth of 10 cm reaches +7...+8°C. Row spacing for planting should be around 75 cm, and optimal planting depth depends on soil type: 10–14 cm for sandy and loamy soils, 8–10 cm for clay soils. These agronomic recommendations contribute to obtaining a high-quality yield of this variety.
