Abstract

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a high priority crop in Cuba. A technological package is guaranteed for its production, including pesticides application. Mayabeque is one of the most potato productive provinces in Cuba, emphasize the municipalities Batabanó and Quivicán. In Cuba there are a reduction police of pesticides use; however, an update analysis about use pesticides indicators in these municipalities have not been carry out, to kwon the tendency of pesticide uses in potato crop. The main of this study was to determine the tendency of pesticide usage in potato, in the period 2013-2019, in Batabanó and Quivicán. Application data was obtained from “Estación Territorial de Protección de Plantas”, in both municipalities. In the studied period, 52 active ingredients (i.a.) were applied, with a total of 61 993 and 17 103 kg i.a. and a mean of 23 and 16 kg i.a. per hectare in Batabanó and Quivicán, respectively; when fungicides were the most applied (> 80 % of total). Generally, the trend in application between 2013 and 2019, was decrease in both municipalities. The 31 % (n=16) of i.a. applied can produce a harmful human effect and 54 % (n=28) were banned in many countries. In both municipalities, the reduction of pesticide uses in correspondence with the currently police of substitution of highly hazardous pesticides are demonstrated.
