Abstract

Recently serious attention has been given to the possibility of increasing agriculture production of potato seed with good quality. The importance of knowing the suitable weather condition from temperature ranged between 18-25 °C and its effect on breaking dormancy period of potato seed to get on more sprouts per tuber seed. In Egypt during January potato seeds are imported and during this month the temperature is lower and ranged between (10-13 °C). The main objectives of this work was to study the feasibility of adapting the weather condition around potato seed before planting by solar energy. The obtained results supported using greenhouse due to increasing the ratio of sprouting, earlier emergence, more stems and numbers of new tubers per square meter and more yield in case of storage the seed potato tubers inside the greenhouse for 8 days compared with seed potato tubers that stored in open air outside greenhouse by more than 12%
