Rhizoctonia solani is a thief... being an ubiquitous soil borne fungus, it attacks the newly forming root-ends of plants, ‘cankering’ the growing part of the root-the tip.
Since potatoes produce tubers on the ends of modified roots called stolons, the effect of R.solani on potato crops is to reduce tuber numbers-by cankering the newly forming stolen ends which would have become tubers.
Producing potato roots soil-free as in the video, insulates the potato roots & stolons from damage due to R.solani allowing the potato plant to develop to maturity 100% of the tuber numbers genetically predisposed by the variety of potato.
Since tissue culture plantlets like this are lab cultured in growing medium like agar under sterile conditions and ideal temp/light/moisture, they are expensive. So the objective is potato tuner numbers...not size. This is why the speaker mentioned 10lakh tubers from 20,000 potato plantlet. 10lakh=10x 100,000=1,000,000 tubers 50 mini tubers from each plant. (In the field you could expect ~20 tubers per plant) This 👆is why it’s done. Numbers.
@@eatingamandarin They aren't really that much more expensive to grow....they require less water, they only need a fraction of the space to grow compared to traditional farmland, they grow quickly so they are replaced quickly, and there's no need to wash dirt off of them prior to delivery to a customer/market. Our hydroponic/aeroponically grown potatoes here in the states are priced the same. 🤷♀️
this should be good news for Jains
Great sir
nice doctor
Can i know nutrition formula for potatoes plants
The advantage here is not disease-free tubers... but the insulation from the effects of Rhizoctonia solani.

Looks like they are growing seed potatoes. (Disease free seed potatoes)
That way when you plant them you aren't starting out with diseased potatoes.
Sir iska beej kissan ko mil skta ha?

Apse contact kse kre , seed booking kse krwae ?
This system called - Aeroponics
As i observed those potatoes are small sizes due to the weight
hydroponic potatoes seem to be unable to get big
That's a tiny variety of potatos, so they don't break the roots.
Sir ji contact number do bij parvied karvo sir please
