Recomendaciones de conservación

Commercial storage guidance for intact jicama roots. Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Jicama is chilling sensitive, showing decay, internal discoloration and loss of crispness when stored too cold, and long storage brings sprouting and loss of juiciness. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
