| Abstract | ||
| The experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of harvesting methods of potato crop c.v Desiree in two different locations , Abu-Ghraib and Radwaniah during the spring agricultural season of 2005 . soil texture of Abu-Ghraib was silty clay while that of Radwaniah was clay . Three harvesting methods were used including potato digger chain, potato digger frequency and hand lifting . Split-plot design under randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replicatins was used in this stud A statistical analysis system (SAS) program was used on computer for data analysis to test the differences between treatments and their interaction with LSD at 0.05 level of probability . Harvest properties of potatos including undamaged tubers ratio , qualitative loss ratio and quantitative loss ratio were studied in this study . The results can be summarized on the following : Using chain digger in harvesting potatoes resulted in ahigher mean value of undamaged tubers (88.89%) and lower mean value of qualitative loss (7.65%) . The hand lifting method of potato ratio increased the mean of total potato harvested . harvesting gave a significant decrease in the mean qualitative loss | ||
