Advanced Fertilization Solutions for Maximizing Potato Crop Productivity
<
At Agricotec® we offer advanced fertilization solutions to maximize productivity in potato cultivation. Potatoes are a nutritionally demanding crop, requiring efficient macro and micronutrient management to optimize yield and quality.
La patata es un cultivo exigente en términos nutricionales, requiriendo un manejo eficiente de macro y micronutrientes para optimizar su rendimiento y calidad.
At Agricotec® we present three key products: Phosycal®, Nutrol® 20 y Briopol® K, whose strategic combination enhances crop establishment, tuberization, and final product qualityl.

Phosycal®
A phosphorus and calcium rich solution that promotes tuber formation and differentiation while improving skin quality. Its early application during tuberization optimizes root development and cell multiplication while strengthening plant tissues and reducing physiological disorders such as cracking or internal blemishes.
Phosycal® should be applied at two key stages: First, during the hook stage via foliar application at 800 to 1000 cc/hl to stimulate tuber formation and increase tuber count; osis de 800 a 1000 cc/hl para estimular la formación de los tubérculos y aumentar su número. Second, at the onset of the bulking phase, when tubers reach a minimum diameter of 100 mm, with the same dose to ensure adequate phosphorus and calcium supply.
These recommendations are indicative and should be adjusted based on specialized technical criteria. For optimal management, consult an agronomic advisor or contact our technical department.

Nutrol® 20
A powerful stimulant that promotes balanced vegetative development without compromising tuberization or tuber bulking—key factors in maximizing yield and final quality.
Nutrol® 20 should be applied via fertigation in two phases: First, during vegetative growth at 10 to 30 l/ha (approximately 5 to 15 l/ha for foliar application) to stimulate foliage development. Second, during the bulking phase with the same dose, enhancing carbohydrate accumulation in tubers.
These recommendations are indicative and should be adjusted based on specialized technical criteria. For optimal management, consult an agronomic advisor or contact our technical department.

Briopol® K
A potassium source in the form of thiosulfate, essential for improving starch accumulation in tubers, increasing dry matter content, and enhancing plant resistance to stress conditions. Its application promotes uniform maturation and strengthens tuber skin, optimizing post-harvest storage.
Briopol® K should be applied at two strategic moments: First, at the start of the bulking phase via foliar application at 5 to 15 l/ha to stimulate tuber growth. Second, 15 to 20 days before harvest, applying 5 to 15 l/ha to promote maturation and enhance the final product quality.
These recommendations are indicative and should be adjusted based on specialized technical criteria. For optimal management, consult an agronomic advisor or contact our technical department.

The integration of Phosycal®, Nutrol® 20 and Briopol® K, into a structured fertilization plan improves tuber formation and bulking, increases nutrient absorption efficiency, and strengthens crop resilience.
Proper nutrition not only maximizes yields but also enhances the commercial quality of potatoes, optimizing their shelf life and market value.
To maximize fertilization efficiency, it is essential to conduct soil and tissue analyses, adjusting application rates according to crop requirements. Proper irrigation management ensures optimal nutrient uptake. Additionally, foliar applications should be performed during the coolest hours of the day to maximize effectiveness and minimize evaporation losses.
