Effective potato sprout control with IGEBA ULV aerosol generators.
IGEBA ULV aerosol generators offer a specialized and effective solution for potato sprout control. With their high-quality technology, they enable optimal and even distribution of sprout inhibitors on the potatoes, preventing the growth of sprouts and the emergence of buds.
Briefly explained
Unlike other methods, IGEBA ULV aerosol generators do not generate heat, minimizing the risk of fire and preserving potato quality. Due to the finer particle size of the mist, they enable effective coverage of the potatoes.
The automated application capability of IGEBA ULV aerosol generators ensures easy and safe handling during the sprout inhibition process. The units are designed to function reliably and minimize the risk of accidents while ensuring the safety of people and property.
Jens Gommer and Meik Krüssel rely on convincing technology
Jens Gommer and Meik Krüssel have been working intensively on the application of IGEBA ULV devices for potato sprout inhibition. Their article describes in detail how these devices can be used to inhibit potato germination. The advantages of this method are discussed and it is made clear why the use of IGEBA ULV devices is a convincing alternative to other methods. Click on the testimonial to learn more.
Testimonial-Jens Gommer & Meik Krüssel
Effective Potato Sprout Inhibition with IGEBA Unipro40T and Orange Oil As potato farmers in Germany, Mr. Krüssel has consistently sought ways to reliably inhibit potato sprouting while improving crop quality. Fortunately, they had the opportunity to test the IGEBA...
Benefits of IGEBA ULV aerosol generators for potato sprout control:
-
Effective sprout control: Targeted distribution of sprout inhibitors on the potatoes prevents sprouting and bud formation, thereby extending the shelf life of the potatoes.
-
Minimized quality loss: Since ULV aerosol generators do not generate heat, the storage temperature remains stable, preserving potato quality
-
Optimal coverage: Finer particles allow for even distribution of sprout inhibitors within and on the entire potato stock, leading to efficient sprout control.
-
Easy and safe application: The automated application capability of the devices ensures easy and safe handling throughout the sprout control process.
IGEBA ULV aerosol generators are the ideal solution for potato sprout control, as they enable effective and gentle treatment with suitable products. With these equipment, you can ensure the shelf life and quality of your potatoes, making a significant contribution to optimizing your storage and processing.
Optimal Ventilation for Fresh Potatoes!
The ventilation system plays a crucial role in potato storage. Our devices are specially designed for “over-ventilated” storage. Based on years of experience, we know that many potato storage facilities have insufficient ventilation capacity. Therefore, many of our customers partially plan their potato storage, focusing, for example, on storing carrots, as carrots require approximately 40% more air than potatoes. By using powerful ventilation systems, sandy and moist potatoes can dry and cool more quickly.
Airflow also plays an important role in misting. The air circulates, for example, from the bottom up through the stacked potatoes. In storage with weak ventilation systems, the mist is visible only where the resistance due to the potatoes is lowest. With optimized ventilation systems, the mist is evenly distributed over the entire stack. This ensures that the misting method works optimally and ensures effective
Warning: Always use at your own risk. Depending on the product, the ULV or cold fogging process also poses a fire hazard. The manufacturer’s instructions must be observed.
