I know they are gamma-irradiating potatoes in Japan to prevent
sprouting. Not much effect though because the population thrives
mainly on rice.

I know the potato processors (french fry makers)
who store huge quanities
of potatoes have (and likely still use) chemical sprout
inhibitors. I have no idea of the trade off in risks from
irradiation in comparison to chemical sprout inhibition.
As sloppy some processors are I could imagine
some potatoes getting both treatments.
