After the purchase and installation of a storage facility, the supplier can still make a valuable contribution to storage efficiency.

Potatoes in storage, will first need to be warmed up before transport.

When the potato crop has just been planted, soil surface water evaporates. After emergence, the plant loses water through transpiration.

The processes of wound healing and drying is easier to control in a box-storage.

Potential yield is the theoretical yield that can be calculated when all the rates such as the photosynthetic rate, respiration rate and.

On hot days, start early in the morning and lift until noon, start or restart early in the evening and work until late in the evening, bearing in.

The model used to calculate potential yield (see image below) assumes that there is no lack of water nor that yields are limited by lack of.

If the storehouse is equipped with mechanical cooling, it is possible to cool the tubers quickly to the desired storage temperature.

A higher CO₂ concentration of the air, a factor in climate change according to its definition in the Potato handbook, increases the internal CO₂.

In order to be able to cool the potatoes adequately, it is important to fill the storage cells and boxes in the most optimal way.
