Mohammed Ahmed

New Countryside · 23-36 · 10.55121/nc.v1i2.41

 This study was carried out to evaluate the role of curing period, exogenous Abscisic Acids (ABA) levels and on farm storage methods on the physiological quality losses of potato tubers during storage. The research was set out in a Split-Split-Plot Design (SSPD) with curing period allocated to the main plot while storage conditi
