Sprout Inhibitor
Restrain is the manufacturer of a unique generator that converts ethanol to ethylene gas. Based in the Netherlands, Restrain has been in Europe for over 20 years. In 2022, Restrain was approved for use in the U.S. and Canada.
Ethylene is a gaseous plant hormone involved with many physiological processes including growth regulation. It restricts the elongation of sprouts after dormancy break and is the basis of the sprout inhibitor Restrain. Ethylene gas is used to prevent sprout elongation in onions and shallots in storage. Ethylene gas is a sustainable product and the only post-harvest sprout control for onions in storage. This treatment can be used in conjunction with MH-30 or on its own.
