We analyzed how long-term application of cattle slurry and mineral N, P and K fertilizers affects the yield of potato tubers, their dry matter content and concentrations of different elements. In 2009, potato tubers were collected in control, cattle slurry (CS), mineral N4P2K2 and combined CSN4P2K2 treatment of the Ruzyne Fertilizer and Crop Rotation Experiment established on Illimerized Luvisol in Prague (Czech Republic) in 1955. The amounts of N, P and K supplied by CS were 138, 30 and 172 kg/ha and the amounts supplied by N4P2K2 were 110, 31 and 186 kg/ha. The yields of fresh potatoes ranged from 20.6 (control) up to 31.2 t/ha (CSN4P2K2 treatment). Dry matter content of unpeeled tubers, peeled tubers and potato peels was not significantly affected by fertilizer treatments probably because of not excessive N application. Normal cropping practices with application of CS and mineral N, P and K fertilizers did not significantly increase concentrations of trace elements in peeled tubers or potato peels on neutral soil with low trace elements availability. Concentrations of many elements (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, and Zn) were higher in potato peels than in peeled tubers, but the differences in the case of trace elements were relatively small.
