Descriptive, sustainability, price dependence analysis is taken up to study the internal production and market situation. Box Jenkin’s ARIMA methodology is taken up to forecast the future area, production and productivity of India and the major growing states. To analyse the export behaviour, Markov Chain analysis is taken up. The study reveals that although there have been growths in area, production and productivity, the average productivity is far below the world highest productivity. Sustainability analysis reveals differential sustainability status of major growing states with respect to area, production and productivity. Forecasting of area, production and productivity reveals that India is expected to produce 56 million tonnes of potato from 2.2 million hectares of area with an expected productivity of 25.24 tonnes per hectare, much below the present highest productivity of the world. Study of seasonality of prices and markets cointegration reveals seasonal and lag dependence of prices with only unidirectional market cointegration. The Markov Chain analysis reveals that excepting Saudi Arabia and Oman there will be reduced import of Indian potatoes by other major importing countries.

In addition, an exploratory study of the preparation of starch nanoparticles from these potato varieties by the flash nanoprecipitation method was performed. The morphology (scanning electron microscopy and optical microscopy), crystallinity (X-ray diffraction), thermal (differential scanning calorimetry), rheological (rapid visco analyser) and hydration properties are reported. Starches from Patagonia potato (PPS) and Asterix potato (APS) were isolated by the wet milling method. PPS and APS had similar starch content on fresh weight basis, around 15%. The granule particle sizes of Chilean potato starches showed a unimodal distribution, in the range of 10–90 µm. Amylose content varied between 23.8 and 25.3% for APS and PPS, respectively, making them normal starches. Gelatinisation temperature and enthalpy were 58.6 and 60.1 °C and 15.5 and 17.8 J/g for APS and PPS, respectively. Significant differences were obtained in the pasting parameters of Chilean potato starches; the rapid visco analyser pasting profiles of PPS exhibited a large viscosity peak and APS did not show a distinctive viscosity peak. The pasting profiles of APS are required for food products such as soups and sauces. Spherical nanoparticles were prepared from the Chilean potato starches by flash nanoprecipitation method using two micromixer devices: confined impinging jet mixer and multi-inlet vortex mixer. The size of potato nanoparticles depended on micromixer device, and the lowest particle size (100 nm) was obtained when the confined impinging jet mixer was used.

Employing techniques that facilitate rapid, objective, and cost-effective identification of various aspects of plant physiology is crucial for generating this valuable information. In this study, our goal was to identify different potato cultivars across three distinct phenological phases utilizing reflectance spectroscopy within the visible and near-infrared ranges. Reflectance spectra were measured using a portable spectrometer on leaves obtained from five different potato cultivars. We constructed classification models to determine the accurate classification percentages for each cultivar within specific phenological stages. General trends in the reflectance spectra were observed, which were consistent across all five cultivars within the measured range. During the vegetative phase, there was a uniform reflectance of around 5% in the green region. This value experienced a slight decrease during the flowering phase and subsequently rose to approximately 12% during the senescence phase. In the near-infrared (NIR) range, a reduction in reflectance from 50 to 30% was noted during the flowering phase, followed by a cultivar-dependent increase towards senescence. The specific wavelengths identified in the spectra enabled the accurate classification of plants from each cultivar across the vegetative, flowering, and senescence phases. The classification rates were notably high, with a success rate of 87% for Var. Paola, 96% for Var. Paysandú, 93% for Var. Violeta, and 100% for cv. 448 and 440. The Var. Paola exhibited superior correct classification rates, ranging from 85% for Paysandú and Violeta, 90% for cv. 440, to 100% for cv. 448.

One-year-on-farm research was conducted in the Amhara region to identify major determinant nutrient types for potato (<i>Solanum tuberosum</i> L.) growth and tuber yields in Amhara region. The experiment was conducted in 2021 under rain fed conditions on eight farm fields in the Amhara region classified under three major potato-growing domains (Quarit-Yilmana Densa, Dembecha, and Baja-Sekela). A total of ten treatments (NPSZnBK, NPSZnK-B, NPSBK-Zn, NPZnBK-S, NPSZnB-K, NSZnBK-P, PSZnBK-N, NPS, NP, and control) were evaluated in the experiment. The treatments were laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) and replicated three times. The improved potato variety “Gudenie (CIP-386423–13)” was used as a test crop. Urea, TSP (triple super phosphate), KCl (muriate of potash), MgSO<sub>4</sub> (magnesium sulfate), EDTA, and Borax were used for the sources of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), sulfur (S), zinc (Zn), and boron (B) nutrients, respectively. Except for urea, all fertilizer sources were applied once at planting, while urea was applied in three equal splits at different crop stages (planting, flowering, and tuber initiation). Before planting, one composite soil sample from each experimental site was taken at 0–20 cm depth, and analysed for some important soil parameters. Both potato yield components and biological yield (tuber yield) were taken. Marketable and total tuber yields of potato showed highly significant differences among treatment means at each experimental site as well as from combined analysis in the study domains. The main driving force for the occurrence of significant differences between treatment means in the ANOVA was due to omitting N and P nutrients. Tuber yield of potato showed quick and automatic responses to omitting N followed by omitting P. However, both marketable and total tuber yields did not show any significant differences, either due to adding or omitting S, Zn, B, and K nutrients.

The models were trained on 1961–2009 data and evaluated on a 2010–2021 validation set. On the training set, XGBoost showed the best performance. However, on the validation set, ARIMA and state space models significantly outperformed XGBoost, indicating issues with overfitting. The ARIMA models produced the lowest forecast errors for Afghanistan, Bangladesh, China, and Myanmar. Meanwhile, state space models were optimal for India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka, demonstrating that no one approach was uniformly best. The top performing models forecast potato production up to 2028, Afghanistan’s production is expected to remain stable at around 860–862 thousand metric tons. Bangladesh’s output is forecasted to stay constant at 9887 thousand metric tons. In contrast, China is predicted to see a steady increase from 94,625 to 96,193 thousand metric tons. India’s production is anticipated to grow significantly from 54,704 to 62,396 thousand metric tons. Conversely, Myanmar’s production is projected to decline from 460 to 426 thousand metric tons.

Nonlinear models have been fitted on the potato late blight data (i.e. percent disease index data). The goodness-of-fit tests on different models have been performed by the application of the following criteria, namely coefficient of determination, mean absolute error, mean absolute percentage error, average relative predictive error, Akaike’s information criterion and Bayesian information criterion, respectively. The validation of the models has been carried out by the Shapiro-Wilk test and running test for conforming to the assumptions of normality and independence of the errors, respectively. Based on the application of the goodness-of-fit tests on the models, it was found that for 2014 and 2015, cubic and Gompertz models provided the best-fitted models based on the above sets of data, respectively. Using the best-fitted models referred to above, the values of two important parameters, namely (1) maximum rate of growth of the disease and (2) maximum disease severity, were determined. For the year 2014, it was observed that the maximum rate of growth of the disease occurred at 31 days after planting (DAP) and the maximum disease severity occurred at 48 DAP; however, even after the attainment of the maximum rate of the growth of the disease, the severity of the disease may increase, so it can be concluded that an additional application of fungicidal spray is necessary (when the disease is located in the field). On the other hand, for 2015, we observed that the maximum rate of growth of the disease occurred at 43 DAP. It indicates that any protection measure should be adopted at this stage (here, 43 DAP).
