How to use powder sachets to break potato tuber dormancy with powder sachets from MDQ.
In potato cultivation, one of the challenges that farmers often face is tuber dormancy—that is, a condition where the tubers do not sprout immediately after being harvested. In fact, in the process of propagation or replanting, breaking dormancy is very important to ensure uniform and optimal shoot growth. One effective and widely used method for breaking dormancy is to use carbide (calcium carbide). Carbide works by releasing acetylene gas when it reacts with water. This gas functions as a stimulant for the growth of shoots in potato tubers. PT EMDEKI UTAMA Tbk, as a provider of quality sachet powder, presents practical and efficient solutions for the needs of potato farmers.
