Abstract The high-quality potato seed availability in Indonesia always to be attempted continuously by Indonesian governments to encourage national potato production optimization. One of the efforts is through aeroponic potato seed production. The G0 (zero generation seed) aeroponic potato produces a better yield and healthier tuber compare to G0 conventional potato production. IVegRI has undertaken studies related to G0 potato aeroponic. The results have been disseminated and some of them have been adopted by the potato producers in various regions in Indonesia. The study aimed to investigate the potato aeroponic seed production in Indonesia based on the producers’ perception of the benefits and challenges. The study was conducted from April to December 2017, in 8 districts from 6 provinces, engaging 18 G0 aeroponic potato producers. Data were analyzed descriptively. The resulting study showed that G0 aeroponic producers perceived the production of G0 aeroponic potato as more profitable compared to G0 conventional. The advantages covered: the production was higher, the yield tuber was healthier and sterile, and also it could be produced anytime. Meanwhile, challenges faced were: initially investment cost was quite expensive, electricity installation frequently was unstable and, the challenge concocted a suitable potato aeroponic nutrition.

It is proved that high-quality potato harvesting is one of the most important technological operations that contributes to improving the safety of tubers during their storage. It is established that the digging working body on the potato harvester has low agrotechnical performance parameters, which directly affect the productivity, quality of harvested tubers, work and resistivity of the harvesting unit. A bar digging working body is proposed, the use of which allows to reduce the volume of soil supplied to elevators, which improves the separation of pile, and the tubers after the passage of the unit are not covered with soil coming off the conveyor. In addition, the rod working body allows the harvesting machine to work within the limits of agrotechnical requirements, eliminating damages and losses of tubers, improving the aggregate composition of the soil, as well as reducing its specific traction resistance and increasing productivity.

The main objective of this study was to determine the extent of adoption of improved potato production technologies by the potato growers. Data were collected from 231 potato growers of three highly concentrated potato growing Upazilas, namely Pirgachha (Rangpur), Munshiganj Sadar (Munshiganj), and Shibganj (Bogra) during October 2010 to February 2011. The potato growers showed marked individual differences in their socio-economic characteristics and majority of them belonged to middle age category having small family size, primary level of education, small farm size, medium innovativeness, and medium contact with extension personnel. The study revealed that highest proportion of the respondents in Munshiganj Sadar belonged to high adoption category in case of BARI recommended potato variety (72.6%), optimum planting time (87.7%), use of balanced fertilizers (45.2%), whereas medium adoption categories were found in quality potato seed (52.1%), proper seed size (47.9%), fertilizer application methods (71.2%), optimum irrigation (89%), earthing up (84.9%), plant protection (74%), and low adoption categories were found in maintaining proper spacing (42.5%). In Pirganj of Rangpur, highest proportion of the respondents belonged to high adoption category in case of BARI recommended potato variety (77%), optimum planting time (83.8%), whereas medium adoption categories were found in the use of quality potato seed (64.9%), balanced fertilizer (43.2%), proper seed size (52.7%), fertilizer application methods (87.8%), optimum irrigation (97.3%), earthing up (86.5%), plant protection (93.2%), and low adoption categories were found in maintaining proper spacing (64.9%). In Shibganj of Bogra, highest proportion of the respondents were found in high adoption category in case of BARI recommended potato variety (75%), optimum planting time (86.9%), whereas medium adoption categories were found in use of quality potato seed (52.4%), balanced fertilizers (47.6%), fertilizer application methods (78.6%), optimum irrigation (95.2%), earthing up (88.1%), plant protection (76.2%), and low adoption categories were found in maintaining proper spacing (59.5%) and proper seed size (57.1%). The study also revealed that highest (53.4%) proportion of the respondents in Munshiganj Sadar belonged to high potato yield (above 29 ton/ha) farmer category while medium potato yield (between 19 to 29 t/ha) category were found in other two areas i.e., Shibganj (58.80%) and Pirgachha (79.50%). Education, farm size, subsistence pressure, annual income, contact with the sources of information, farming experience, attitude, and knowledge on potato production showed significant positive relationship with adoption of improved potato production technologies.
