AG-SERVICES Emulsifiable Concentrate is a emulsifiable formulation of food grade chlorpropham for treatment of potatoes to inhibit sprouting. It is mixed with water and applied to potatoes in the packing line. AG-SERVICES E.C. inhibits sprouting by preventing cell division. Contact with the buds on the tuber is essential for results to be effective.
Potatoes must be clean and all bruises and cuts must have healed before treatment. Dirt on the potato may prevent the chemical from reaching the buds. Application before wounds have healed will prevent suberization and will leave the tuber open to infection by disease. Normally a minimum of two weeks should elapse after harvest and before treatment.
