Abstract

Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas Poir) is one of the plants with a special chemical composition that is more complete with nutritional values for different ages, mainly for the ages of childhood and old age. It is very good food for people who have stomach problems and who have poor metabolism. Sweet potato is rich in starch, sugars, proteins, vitamins and chemical elements such as potassium, iron, magnesium, etc. Two sweet potato cultivars were included in the study: Covington and O'Henry. Seedlings were obtained in Ioannina, Greece, and planted in Divjaka, in sandy soils suitable for sweet potato cultivation. In both cultivars, measurements were made for morphological and productive indicators: number of shoots/plant, length of shoots/plant (sum), longest shoot, shortest shoot, number of leaves/plant, leaf color, flower color, leaf shape, tuber shape, tuber skin color, tuber pulp color, tuber placement, yield/plant (kg/plant), number of tubers/plant, weight average tuber kg, weight of the largest tuber (kg), weight of the smallest tuber kg, the yield kv/ha.
