In this research, the cultivation and storage of potatoes grown in saline soils of Khorezm region at different levels with biopreparations, such as Bist (Pseudomonas putida) and Zamin-M (Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus megaterium and Pseudomonas stutzeri), were studied. In the experimental variants, there was 1.381 mg/kg of vitamin C, followed by 0.112 mg/kg of vitamin B6, 0.089 mg/kg of vitamin PP, 0.481 mg/kg of vitamin B12 and 0.092 mg/kg of vitamin B2 when Zamin-M was applied. Potatoes, which were treated with Zamin-M, contained 0.45% Fructose, 0.87% Glucose, 0.92% Sucrose, 0.04% Maltose, and it was higher than other biopreparations. During storage, the number of diseased nodules was 21.8% when treated with Earth ointment, it was 20% when treated with Bist, and it was 19.8% when treated with Zamin-M. The results showed that Zamin-M was suitable in soil and climate conditions of Khorezm region, especially for storage of potato, and it was found that Zamin-M contained microorganism, which activate the synthesis of phytohormones operating under stress. In comparison, the tested Zamin-M extended the shelf life of potatoes by 25% than the control variants.
