Potatoes are an important crop for the country’s food security. In connection with the warming of the climate, it becomes possible to cultivate two crops of potatoes in one growing season. Potatoes can be affected by numerous diseases, the most dangerous in our zone are Phytophthora infestans and, in recent years, Alternaria. According to various sources, losses amount to 50%. The use of resistant varieties reduces the pesticide load on the crop agrocenosis. The article presents the results of studies of field resistance of different varieties of potatoes to Alternaria and Phytophthora infestans, as well as the use of effective fungicides of systemic action. It was revealed that during the cultivation of two early harvests of potatoes during one growing season, differentiation of diseases occurs in the summer: Alternaria develops during the first planting, and Phytophthora infestansdevelops during the second planting. For the first planting, it is necessary to use varieties resistant to Alternaria (Zhukovsky, Lady Claire, Red Scarlet and Impala), for the second planting, resistant to Phytophthora infestans(Luck). In the system of protective measures, it is necessary to include one treatment with systemic fungicides, it is necessary to take into account the waiting period, as the growing season is short.
