Double potato harvest is obtained in the southern regions of the country. In recent years, due to warming, this method of growing has become possible in the middle lane, in the Moscow region. Tubers are marketable, have a delicate taste and are in demand among the population. The first crop is sold at a higher price, and the second crop allows the use of young delicious potatoes until late autumn. This contributes to the production of physiologically young tubers, which leads to the maintenance of planting material in a healthy state for a longer time without variety updating, also physiologically young tubers are better stored and need to be stored less time, thereby reducing storage costs. Obtaining two harvests of potato tubers will make the potato industry in Russia more autonomous and economically more profitable.
