Selection of suitable fields

👎Heavy soils, stony fields results in more damage and bruising on tubers

Better tillage and seed-bed preparation

👎 Avoid tillage on wet soils to prevent clods

Pre-harvest precautions

Haulm killing before harvest for better skin-set

Harvesting at proper soil and air temperatures

Harvesting at over 25 oC results in at least 10% more loss in storage

Light irrigation helps to reduce damages

Special attention to reduce damage during harvest and picking
