| A drought and high temperatures were a headache | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| A drought from May to July delayed the start of plants growing in unison, which caused a lot of trouble for me like having to ridge the soil again. The starch content value was low. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| A lot of rain in June and then a drought in July and August. The stems and leaves were fine, but tubers didn't get enough nutrition and turned out small. June was cloudy and rainy and potatoes didn't grow due to lack of sunshine. The drought in July and A | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Abnormal weather in June and July hindered growth again this year: rain and low temperatures in June, and extreme heat in late July | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Area B, because it's naturally wet, yielded more even though we had little rain this year | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Average. Better than last year. | 2 |
0.8%

| Danshaku and Kita-akari had many tubers but many of them were small | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Did our control work right before diseases hit due to the weather | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Early growth was poor. Didn't have enough seed potatoes and used some purchased ones, which weren't of high quality, so growth was uneven. | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Early spring winds collapsed the soil, and I ended up with many rejects | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Expected a lower yield because the leaves wilted early, but yield turned out the same as usual even though potatoes were a little small | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Flowers stayed in bloom longer, indicating good potato growth. Higher rainfall causes flowers to fall early. | 2 |
0.8%

|
| Glad because there weren't any problems in particular | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Glad that the yield didn't change much | 2 |

| Glad that the yield was good even though we were hit by 3 typhoons | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Glad that typhoons didn't affect us | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Glad we had less blight than last year. Potatoes grew better than expected. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Good growth, and a bumper harvest. The weather was good. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth in the early stage was very good. We had a heat wave in July but it didn't affect much because this variety grows relatively later. | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Growth was as usual without any problems | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was bad due to bad weather. Potatoes were small because they couldn’t store up nourishment due to lack of sunshine and photosynthesis. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was better than usual because the weather was good | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Growth was fairly good. Thanks to ridging, there were no damages from excess moisture, but low temperatures (early June) and a drought (mid- to late-July) did the damaging. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was good | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Growth was good after spring. Plenty of water from April snow and extended high temperatures in July helped potatoes grow. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was good in the first half, but we had a drought in the second half | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was good thanks to low temperatures in July. Extended high temperatures, a drought, and lack of water will scorch the stems. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was good with the stems remaining green till the end without ever withering | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was good, but it was so dry during harvest that the potatoes were damaged | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was good. The weather was stable. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was just as usual, neither good nor bad | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Growth was normal | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Growth was poor because heavy rain in June hardened the field | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was poor because of a slight lack of rain | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Growth was poor due to a lack of rain at the time of planting, but it was okay after that | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was poor. Maybe because of the drought during the early days or maybe the fertilizer didn't work well because the potatoes were planted after beans. | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Growth was satisfactory until about June. Growth got bad overall later because rain washed away fertilizers and lack of sunshine left the stems thin. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was slow due to an extended period of cloudy days, and it wasn't easy to deal with | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Growth was smooth in June and July despite low temperatures | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was smooth thanks to good weather. High temperatures from late July to early August hastened growth, lowering the starch content. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was somewhat bad because weather was bad from mid-June to July and potatoes didn’t get much sunshine during the tuber growth stage | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth was the same as usual, but we got fewer potatoes because of weather | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth wasn't as good as hoped. It was a series of droughts and heavy rains. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth wasn't bad because the weather wasn't bad compared to the usual | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Growth wasn't bad. Quality didn't deteriorate and we didn't have any diseases, either. | 2 |
0.8%

|
| Had a hard time controlling due to bad weather. Hard to find the right time to apply, especially at the beginning. Considering that, we had little rotting. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Harvesting wasn't easy because we couldn't get in the field due to rain | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| High rainfall led to poor growth, and it also took us much longer than usual to harvest | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| High temperatures in July and a lack of rain in August were probably the cause of decreased yield | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| I expected poor harvest because of a light drought in June and high temperatures in July, but potatoes were growing unexpectedly nicely underground | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| I had high hopes because growth in the early stage was very good, but excessive heat in July caused seedlings to wither, followed by poor growth | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| I'm sure there were diseases because of the long rain, but potatoes were fine when we dug them. They could start rotting while in storage at JA. | 2 |

| If you sow seeds in dry fields without being hasty in spring, you can expect decent harvest | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| It didn't rain when we needed it | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| It rained a lot in August, which is the controlling period for potatoes. You need to apply more chemical products during rain. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| It rained a lot in June and July when potatoes were supposed to grow larger and the flowers were to bloom, so growth was delayed | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| It rained continuously and we couldn't get in the field for control when we wanted to. We had some blight and soft rot. The rain was followed by a drought, causing early stem withering and making potatoes even smaller. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| It was easy to manage thanks to the good weather. I got to choose when to use the wilting agent. The rain in early spring helped. | 2 |
0.8%

0.4%
|
|
| Low temperature in June caused soft rot. Damages from typhoons in August led to low yield. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Low temperatures and lack of sunshine in June and July led to poor potato growth and a low yield (referring to the potatoes planted early) | 1 |
0.4%

|
| Potatoes grew well this year thanks to the good weather and no drought | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Potatoes looked fine but were small and low quality. Rain and moisture led to many green potatoes. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Potatoes were small due to long rain and lack of sunshine. They rotted as they were immersed in typhoon rain for a long time. The soil is clay 1 meter (?) below surface, which makes it poorly drained and prevented us and machines from going in the field. | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Potatoes withered early, so harvest was early, too | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| Rain prevented us from going in the fields as much as we wanted. We couldn't apply desiccants until a little too late. It's a big machine, so once you go in you can't easily come out when it's raining. | 2 |

|
|
| Stems didn't grow because of long, two-month rain around June. There was a disease, too (soft rot), We couldn't control because we couldn't get in the field due to long rain. Potatoes were plenty but small overall. | 2 |

|
| Temperatures were low at the beginning, but that wasn't a bad environment for potatoes. No insects because of the low temperature. High temperatures in July damaged the roots, which decreased the yield a little. | 2 |

|
| Tend to use more chemicals trying to minimize influences from poor weather | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| The drought from May to June, followed by a lot of rain, made the potato plants grow tall and easy to collapse (easier to catch diseases) | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| The first half of the season was bad with insufficient sunshine, but we were saved by July's good weather | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| The plants fell down (and stopped growing) before using a wilting agent, so potatoes were harvestable but not big. There were an enough number of them, but the yield wasn't too big. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| The plants were growing nicely above the ground, but hardly growing underground | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| The weather improved in the second half (August and September), so the potatoes planted later recovered and grew as usual | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| The weather was good all the way through from planting to harvest. The soil in the field that was used this year in rotation was also good. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| The weather was in such extremes between the rain and low temperatures in June and extreme heat in July | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| The yield was low due to lack of rain. It would've been great if we had rain twice or so in July, but we didn't. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| There was 10 consecutive days of high temperatures, 36-38 degrees Celsius, because of the warming climate, and it ruined the stems. Potato is a cool climate plant and susceptible to heat. | 2 |
0.8%

|
| There was a high temperature period and a low temperature period in summer, and it was a little challenging | 2 |

|
| There wasn't much potato scab. Potatoes were well-shaped. Good yield. | 2 |
0.8%

| Things went generally well even though we had a near drought. Potatoes had high starch contents. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Things were fine until mid-August, but then the weather deteriorated and that's why the yield decreased | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| Things were good till summer and then temperatures went down around July, so we used protection products to prevent blight | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| This year was the year of diseases such as blight and soft rot | 2 |

|
| We changed fertilizers but, with lack of sunshine, potatoes didn't grow satisfactorily | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| We had a lot of rain in June and we couldn't control when we wanted to. We were worried about diseases, too, so I'm relieved we didn't have any. | 2 |

|
|
| We had high temperatures and a drought in July, but the damage wasn't that bad because the growth was good before that | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| We had low rainfall this year, so Area A, which is naturally dry, fared worse than Area B, which is wet | 1 |
0.4%
|
|
| We had soft rot in June because high rainfall, excess nitrogen, lack of sunshine, etc. made stems weak | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| We had some lack of moisture in July and August but it didn't largely affect the yield. The large temperature differences between day and night helped growth favorably. | 2 |
0.8%
|
|
| We were able to finish planting earlier than usual by the end of April, so potatoes grew earlier. Seedlings were already fully grown when the bad weather hit in June and later, so we were spared from too much loss considering how damaging it was. | 2 |
