Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

  • I would suggest changing the title as to be in line with the aim of the study (lines 63-65).
  • I would suggest rewriting the abstract more carefully using necessary terminology. Furthermore, please provide important results details…

 

Comments - Suggestions

  • Line 33: missing parenthesis [1].
  • It is better to write cultivation practices instead of cultivation technologies.
  • I would prefer to see few characteristics of the tested cultivars.
  • Please write what kind of fertilizers are used.
  • What was the used plant density?
  • Suddenly in line 126 an equation appears which obviously participates in table 3, but in the way it appears it looks like a foreign text.

Dear Reviewer 1

 I would suggest changing the title as to be in line with the aim of the study (lines 63-65).- I would suggest keep the original title.

I would suggest rewriting the abstract more carefully using necessary terminology. Furthermore, please provide important results details… In attached to suggesting- abstract was corrected.

Line 33: missing parenthesis [1]. -  I add missing parenthesis

It is better to write cultivation practices instead of cultivation technologies. Ok done I change all mining’s to cultivation practices.

I would prefer to see few characteristics of the tested cultivars. I add next table with characteristics of tested varieties, next tables numbering of were corrected.

Please write what kind of fertilizers are used.   I add two kind of fertilizers manuscript.

What was the used plant density? – I add density of sowed plants.

Suddenly in line 126 an equation appears which obviously participates in table 3, but in the way it appears it looks like a foreign text. – Equation was corrected on MDPI rules.

Reviewer 2 Report

The authors present a case study related to the impact of irrigation with crop potatoes in different regions of Poland. For the scientific community this case study is important to evaluate the impact of irrigation in different regions and to improve and select the future cultivars. The work can be an asset for the region in that it predicts the best irrigation conditions, as well as the selection of cultivars considering the impact that the climatic changes will be require in the future, mainly in terms of irrigation.

Suggestions:

Line 184 to 195 – consider the remotion or put in 2.4. Statistical calculations
Table 6 – Xx for X1
Table 6 and Table 7 - Uniformize the letters
Table 10 - does not contain the letter referring to statistical analysis - II - cultivation technology with irrigation 96.08? "letter a"
Table 11 - Check the means and correct.
Table 9,12 and 14 - Verify the letters. You have 2 letters in a mean of Cultivar "Denar”, uniformize.

Dear Reviewer 2

Line 184 to 195 – consider the remotion or put in 2.4. Statistical calculations- I delete this line.
Table 6 – Xx for X1- I change it.
Table 6 and Table 7 - Uniformize the letters, all changes done.
Table 10 - does not contain the letter referring to statistical analysis - II - cultivation technology with irrigation 96.08? "letter a"-  technical error completed
Table 11 - Check the means and correct.- I add missing values.
Table 9,12 and 14 - Verify the letters. You have 2 letters in a mean of Cultivar "Denar”, uniformize.- I change table 9,12,13 and 14. I add next table with characteristics of tested varieties, next tables numbering were corrected.
