How BMP Logic Promotes Optimal Conditions for Healthy Potato Crops

May 3, 2023

Maintaining optimal soil moisture levels is critical in ensuring a healthy and productive potato crop. If soil moisture content is above the field capacity for too long, it can lead to the formation of lenticels, small raised areas on the surface of the potato tubers. These lenticels can cause significant issues during storage and transportation, leading to a higher risk of spoilage, decay, and reduced shelf life. Therefore, it is essential to keep soil moisture content below field capacity to avoid the formation of lenticels and maintain high-quality potato crops.

Fortunately, with BMP Logic soil sensors, potato farmers can precisely monitor and manage soil moisture levels to ensure that they remain below field capacity. The sensors provide real-time data on soil moisture, allowing farmers to adjust irrigation practices and prevent excess moisture buildup in the soil. By utilizing BMP Logic soil sensors, farmers can optimize irrigation management, reduce water waste, and avoid the formation of lenticels in their potato crops, leading to higher yields and better-quality produce. In conclusion, maintaining optimal soil moisture levels is critical for a healthy and productive potato crop. With BMP Logic soil sensors, farmers can accurately manage irrigation and prevent excess moisture buildup, leading to high-quality potato crops with a longer shelf life.
