AGRICULTURE COLUMN
Alar Scare
During the last two weeks there has been a lot of publici
ty about the presence of Alar in fresh apples and apple pro
ducts. The result has been general confusion and fear about
apple consumption, Severa% false or misleading statements
have been made within these reports.
The most false statement is that *‘Alar is a pesticide found
in apples and apple products which cause cancer.”
In fact, Alar is not a pesticide. It is a growth regulator
applied to apples to control ripening and help extend sfil(:lf life
once stored.
Beginning with the 1985 crop, most U. S. apple growers
voluntarily stopped using Alar, Buring the 1988 season only
about five percent of the apple growers applied this chemical
to their trees. Thus, only an extremely small percentage of
apples purchased last year by consumers had %een
Alar-treated.
Georgia apple growers stopped using Alar three to four
years ago because they do no‘L) store their crop.
Several of the television programs stated detectable or
traces of Alar had been found in apples, but no specifics were
given on concentrations. It is the public’s view that any detec
table residue constitutes a health hazard. But this is not true.
Tolerances for residues in food are set by EPA which are at
least 100 times lower than the level at which no toxic effect
is observed. The safe tolerance for Alar is 20 ppm.
Likewise, there has been considerable misinformation
about the presence of Alar in apple products such as juices
and sauce, served to school children. Beginning in 1987, the
National Food Processor's Association in conjunction with
EPA began testing their member's (apgle procession industry)
groducts for Alar. It was not detected in 98.3 percent of the
1,418 samples collected. In the remaining samples (1.7 per
cent), residue levels were far below the safe tolzrance o? 20
ppm. In addition, Alar was not found in over 99 percent of
the baby apple juice samples.
Perhaps one should realize the real risk of not using Alar.
In addition to poorer quality fresh apples, those used for pro
cessing would robab?y be infected with some mold damage.
The result wouEl’d be increased levels of a naturally occurring
carcinogen, patulin, causing this chemical to be present at
higher levels in processed apple products than we are currently
finding in Alar.
