I'm doing a little research online. My first step is to find growing information for your area. I'm not sure if this is exactly where you are farming?

From that, I found this information about growing potatoes -
https://www.gardenate.com/plant/Potato If you are growing in ground, I personally would suggest 15 to 18cm deep from my experiences.

The manure part is not necessary, but it can help. Fertilization is however it is done locally for you or try different things if you see fit. Potatoes are unlike many vegetables - they like to grow in acidic soil with a PH level of 4.8 to 6.0. I have grown them many times in soil that is 6.7 PH, but they did not produce large potatoes. Other than that, don't water them too much or too little, and keep the pests away. You should get rewarded with some potatoes.
