This research investigates the impact of utilizing shading nets and optimizing watering intervals on the growth and yield of 'Atlantic' potatoes. The study focuses on enhancing tuberous development and overall crop productivity through controlled environmental conditions and water management. Results demonstrate the synergistic effects of shading net coverage and precise watering intervals in creating an optimal growth environment, resulting in increased potato yields. The findings contribute valuable insights to potato cultivation practices, emphasizing sustainable and efficient approaches for maximizing agricultural output.
