Abstract
A composition comprising a dispersion prepared by dispersing in an aqueous solution of a water-soluble high polymer, such as polysaccharides, a hydrophobic substance selected from the group consisting of hydrophobic solids and hydrophobic and non-volatile liquids, such as natural waxes, is applied as a coating to cover the outer surface of an agricultural product to form a coating membrane upon drying, which membrane has fine continuous microvoids by which the respiration of the agricultural product can be controllably suppressed thereby to effectively preserve the product over a long period.
