LESSON 5.13 POTATOES – NOT TOO MUCH WATER   




 

Too Much Water Leading to Saturation Periods

 

·         Saturation of the soil profile for more than 8 –12 hours can cause root damage.

·         Over watering causes a higher rate of brown blight, hollow heart, tuber splitting, and general   reduction of tuber quality.

·         Nitrogen can leach below the plant’s shallow root zone.

 

Too Little Water Leading to Water Stress

 

Water deficits reduce the plant’s growth by reducing the water pressure in the plant’s cells that are necessary for expansion which then correlates directly to reduced / stunted tuber expansion.

Too Much Variation

·        During water deficit, tuber expansion reduces or even stops. Once water is returned and the plant is not in stress, tuber expansion will resume; however, tuber malformation likelihood increases. The wider the variation, the greater the problems of malformation.

Not All Irrigation is Created Equal

It is well established that potatoes have a very high sensitivity to water.

However, just using any type of irrigation throughout the field will not solve the problem, even if on paper, it meets the crop water needs.  

If the irrigation itself is not uniform, you can create variability across the field which causes the crop damage.

KILIMO BORA Kimefaulu kwa KILIMO-UCHUMI.
SOMO LA 5.13 VIAZI – SI MAJI MENGI SANA
 
Maji Mengi Sana Yanayoongoza kwa Vipindi vya Kueneza
 
• Kueneza kwa mfumo wa udongo kwa zaidi ya saa 8 – 12 kunaweza kusababisha uharibifu wa mizizi.
• Umwagiliaji kupita kiasi husababisha kiwango cha juu cha ukungu wa kahawia, moyo usio na mashimo, mgawanyiko wa mizizi, na kupungua kwa ubora wa kiazi kwa ujumla.
• Nitrojeni inaweza kuvuja chini ya eneo la mizizi ya mmea.
 
Maji Machache Sana Yanayopelekea Msongo wa Maji
 
Upungufu wa maji hupunguza ukuaji wa mmea kwa kupunguza shinikizo la maji katika seli za mmea ambazo ni muhimu kwa upanuzi ambazo zinahusiana moja kwa moja na upanuzi wa mizizi iliyopunguzwa / iliyodumaa.
Tofauti Sana
• Wakati wa upungufu wa maji, upanuzi wa mizizi hupunguza au hata kuacha. Mara tu maji yanaporudishwa na mmea hauna mkazo, upanuzi wa mizizi utaanza tena; hata hivyo, uwezekano wa kuharibika kwa mizizi huongezeka. Tofauti pana, matatizo makubwa zaidi ya ulemavu.
Sio Umwagiliaji Wote Umeundwa Sawa
Imethibitishwa kuwa viazi vina unyeti mkubwa sana kwa maji.
Hata hivyo, kutumia aina yoyote ya umwagiliaji katika shamba lote hakutatatua tatizo, hata kama kwenye karatasi, kunakidhi mahitaji ya maji ya mazao.
Ikiwa umwagiliaji yenyewe si sawa, unaweza kuunda tofauti katika shamba ambayo husababisha uharibifu wa mazao.
