Spring has come into its own, and real potato growers are worried about the future harvest. One of the main questions is what varieties of potatoes to plant on your site? Much depends on the choice of the variety: when it will be possible to taste young potatoes - in early July or only in August; how it will taste; is it convenient for the hostess to clean it; whether the tubers will be affected by diseases. The yield of the potato and how it will be stored depends on the variety. There are drought-resistant and moisture-loving varieties, varieties adapted to certain types of soil, varieties also differ in technological properties.

Potatoes are currently perceived as a second bread, they are certainly present on the table in one form or another. It is hard to believe that relatively recently in Russia they did not know about the existence of potatoes, and the first plants that appeared were perceived as decorative. Only in 1839, after another famine in Russia, began a truly massive cultivation of potatoes and the use of its tubers for food.
Different varieties of potatoes
Breeding work with potato crops in Russia began around the middle of the 19th century. In this, E.A. was more successful than others. Grachev. He bred the very first potato variety - Early Rose or American, which can still be found in the gardens of summer residents. Academician N.I. Vavilov, thanks to whose labors a number of interesting varieties were obtained. At the moment, potatoes have firmly entered our diet and it is simply impossible to imagine a table without potatoes.
The State Register of Breeding Achievements of the Russian Federation currently contains 426 varieties of potatoes. The oldest potato variety included in the State Register dates back to 1931; this is the Lorkh cultivar, which is zoned in almost all climatic regions with the exception of the northern ones. By the way, about the regions, there are 12 of them, these are the Northern, North-Western, Central, Volgo-Vyatka, Central Black Earth, North Caucasian, Middle Volga, Lower Volga, Ural, West Siberian, East Siberian and Far Eastern regions.
Lorkh potato variety
It's not a secret for anyone that the regions are sometimes very different in climate, and if there is still snow in one region, then in the other it is sometimes possible to harvest the first harvest of the earliest vegetable crops. These climatic features must be taken into account when choosing a particular variety of vegetable crops before planting it in the ground. This also applies to potatoes.
