Seed Potatoes Should Carry White Label Seal Warned by USDA
The United States Department of Agriculture urges farmers in New Jersey and the Middle Atlantic and Southern states to buy seed potatoes only with the white label from the Potato Inspection Service. The seal proves federal inspection for freedom from powdery scab and sources free from the disease. Table potatoes should not be used for planting even if disease free, as they may carry powdery scab. Seed potatoes in sacks up to 180 pounds carry separate certification, while table stock lacks this protection. Some dealers mix table stock for seed, risking quarantine and disease spread. Certified seed is likely higher quality and less mixed. Maine has ample supply and low prices, making planting table stock unnecessary. Rigid inspections for quarantined areas make certified seed as safe as noninfected stock, and better selected overall.
