JUTTA
JUTTA is ideal for packing and direct marketing.
Interesting variety, as skin set is quickly and storing is well. It is suitable for processing.

TUBER
- oval
- shallow eyes
- smooth, bright skin
- yellow flesh
PLANT
- erect stem type
- white flowering
- rapid emergence and foliage development
PLANTING
- relatively good dormancy
- therefore pre-germinate carefully

- distance in row 34 cm (for early potatoes)
- normal cultivation 30 – 32 cm
- plant 2 cm deeper than normal
FERTILIZATION
N-Fertilization: 160 kg N/ha (incl. N-min und N-org)
P-Fertilization: 60 – 80 kg/ha
K-Fertilization: min. 250 kg/ha depending on yield expectations
Mg-Fertilization: 60 kg/ha (very important)
Foliar fertilization with trace elements and phosphate recommended
PLANT PROTECTION
- no known metribuzin intolerance
- also use active substances against Alternaria in normal spraying sequences against Phytophthora
HARVEST & STORAGE
- ripens early and can be harvested after 90 – 100 days
- goes well from the haulm during green harvesting, but care must be taken to harvest gently
- stores well
IRRIGATION
- desirable for uniform growth in dry periods
- stop irrigation 2 weeks before haulm regulation to achieve higher starch content and facilitate haulm regulation
