The invention discloses a drought enduring planting method of potato in high altitude areas, comprising the steps of (1) selecting and treating a planting land, to be specific, subsoiling the land, scattering biochar, rice bran, sulfur and sodium chlorate solution into the land, ditching for moisture organization, and scattering farm manure mixture, brown sugar water and soil to the moisture surface; (2) covering with film, to be specific, covering the moisture surface with black film; (3) treating seed tubers, to be specific, soaking the seed tubers in a tuber soaking solution, and soaking the seed tubers for planting; (4) planting, to be specific, planting the seed tubers in mid-late March; (4) providing field management, to be specific, topdressing with a seedling improving fertilizer once when potato seedlings are neat, topdressing with a growth fertilizer twice to three times in the vigorous growth stage; (5) removing the film; and (6) carrying out harvesting. Suited land planting, reasonable dense planting and scientific fertilization and management are carried out on potato according to the climate of high altitude areas; therefore, the yield per mu can be increased by 20-30%, rotation time of potato planting land is extended, popularization of potato for planting in high altitude areas can be accelerated, and land utilization rate is increased.
