Proper storage of seed potatoes is vital for ensuring healthy crops. After harvesting, farmers should wait three weeks for skin-setting and then dry the potatoes in sunlight for no more than one hour, discarding any rotten or damaged tubers.

For large-scale farmers, bulk storage is commonly used, focusing on critical factors like temperature and humidity. Tubers should be cured at ambient temperature before storage, and adequate ventilation is necessary to dissipate heat. The ideal storage temperature depends on the variety and duration: maintain 4 to 8°C for long-term storage (over five months), while higher temperatures are suitable for shorter periods.

By following these guidelines, both large-scale and small-scale farmers can enhance seed quality and improve crop yields.
