“…Tein et al [103] found potato common scab more severe under organic farming compared to the conventional farming during two seasons out of three. Conversely, the number of tubers infected by silver scurf was lower under organic farming while there was no significant difference between the farming system with regard to potato soft rot infection [103]. Tein et al [103] found that the application of cattle manure in addition to catch crops increased the severity of silver scurf and common scab.…”

“…Through a process known as biofumigation, plants within the Brassicacae family produce glucosinolates, which break down into volatile compounds that are toxic to several plant pathogens [50,58,59,[98][99][100][101][102]. Tein et al [103] found potato common scab more severe under organic farming compared to the conventional farming during two seasons out of three.

Characteristics of Organically Grown Compared to Conventionally Grown Potato and the Processed Products: A Review

Interest in organic foods is increasing at a moment when humanity is facing a range of health challenges including the concern that some conventionally produced foods may pose possible adverse effects on human and livestock health. With the increasing human population, intensive production is increasingly trending towards high-input systems that aim to close yield gaps, increase crop yields, and develop new crop varieties with higher yield potential and tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses, all within the context of incorporating specific traits to satisfy consumer demand. Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is one of the most consumed foods under different cultural diets; however, its production faces some challenges related to soilborne diseases, marketable yield and quality, sugars and dry matter content of the produced tubers, tuber content in terms of nitrate, minerals, vitamins, bioactive compounds, and antioxidants, and consumer appreciation regarding the sensory characteristics of tubers and processed products. Different studies have been investigating some of these challenges, with sometimes straightforward and sometimes conflicting results. This variability in research results indicates the general non-transferability of the results from one location to another under the same management practices in addition to differences in plant material. This review compares some characteristics of raw or boiled potato and processed products from potato tubers grown organically and conventionally. Ideally, such information may be of benefit in decision making by consumers in their dietary choices, by potato growers in their selection of crop management practices, and by scientists looking at potential areas for future research on potatoes.

“…Transcriptome changes occur in potato tubers in response to organic management showing transcriptional induction of the phenylpropanoid pathway linked to Phytophtora infestans infection [ 29 ]. In organic systems, potato tuber disease occurrence was found to be significantly higher, for example, common scab and late potato blight [ 30 , 31 , 32 ]. However, the opposite was reported for potato silver scurf infection, where the numbers of tubers infected in the organic system were lower [ 32 ].…”

Carrot serves as a source of health-beneficial phytochemicals for human diet whose content is affected by agroecological conditions. The effect of conventional, integrated and organic farming on ascorbic acid (AA) and α,β-carotene levels of new carrot cultivars Cortina F1 and Afalon F1 was investigated and their metabolomic profiles were measured by direct analysis in real time ion source coupled with a high-resolution mass spectrometer (DART-HRMS). Cortina and Afalon exhibited high levels of AA and total carotenes under all agroecological conditions tested that fluctuated in broad ranges of 215–539 and 173–456 mg AA.kg–1 dry biomass and 1069–2165 and 1683–2165 mg carotene.kg–1 dry biomass, respectively. The ratio of β- to α-carotene in both cultivars was about 1.3. The most important variable for the PCA and the partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) models for ethyl acetate extracts measured in positive and negative ionization mode was 6-methoxymellein (6-MM). Total carotene content and 6-MM levels were higher in the organic carrot compared to the conventional one and were correlated with a higher level of spontaneous infection. Other important compounds identified were sitosterol, hexose and various organic acids including antioxidant ferulic and coumaric acids. The findings allow comparison of metabolomic profiles and the AA and carotene contents of both cultivars with those of other commercially used carrots.
