The concerns over safety and environmental impact of synthetic pesticides such as chlorpropham (CIPC) has stimulated interest in finding environmentally benign, natural sprout suppressants, including essential oils. The effects of Chenopodium ambrosioides and Lippia multiflora essential oils on sprout growth and decay of stored potatoes has been investigated. Formulations of essential oils with alumina, bentonite, or kaolin, both with and without Triton X-100 additive, were tested. These formulations have been compared to the pulverized plant materials themselves as well as wick-volatilized essential oils. The results showed that the tested oils possess compositions that make them suitable for application as sprout suppressants. Additionally, the formulation seems to be able to reduce the volatility of the essential oil and artificially extend dormancy of stored potatoes.

SummaryTotal sprout length and the length of the longest sprout were shown to be the most universally useful measurements to estimate sprout development in batches of potato tubers. A good estimate of sprout weight was also derived from measurements of total sprout length. There was a good linear relationship between total sprout length and initial tuber weight but the relationship varied considerably with the time of measurement and the temperature of storage.It is suggested that if sprout measurements are to be used to predict the field performance of a batch of tubers the changing pattern of sprout vigour with time needs to be more closely understood.
