Start Clean with Certified Shangi Potato Cuttings

Shangi Potato Cuttings from Advanced Plant Technologies are true-to-type, disease-free planting materials ideal for farmers seeking clean starts and high-yield crops. Propagated directly from in-house breeder material using tissue culture, these cuttings ensure vigorous growth, uniformity, and maximum productivity from the very first harvest.

🌱 Why Choose Shangi Potato Cuttings?

1. Clean, Disease-Free Material

Our Shangi cuttings are initiated from elite breeder stock maintained under sterile laboratory conditions. This eliminates soil-borne diseases, viruses, and pests common in traditional tubers.

2. True-to-Type Consistency

Cuttings are genetically identical to the original Shangi cultivar, giving you uniform growth, maturity, and yield performance.

3. Early Establishment

Compared to tubers, potato cuttings root faster and establish quickly in well-prepared nursery beds or directly in the field. This leads to shorter cropping cycles and earlier returns.

🔬 Propagated Using Advanced Tissue Culture

At Advanced Plant Technologies, our state-of-the-art tissue culture lab ensures every Shangi cutting is:

• Vigorous

• Clean

• High-yielding
  We start with certified breeder stock and carefully propagate through multiple in vitro stages until ready for hardening and field transfer.
