Consumption trend of potato products in russia
The consumer demand for potato flakes and starch shows a growing trend. On the one hand, with the gradual recovery of the Russian economy, peoples living standards are constantly improving, and the requirements for food quality are becoming higher and higher. Potato flakes can be used to make a variety of pasta, cakes, etc., and its high-quality taste and rich nutrition are favored by consumers. Potato starch is widely used as a thickening agent and stabilizer in the food industry, such as in meat processing, starch can absorb the water in the net eye after heat degeneration, making the starch particles become soft and elastic, playing the dual role of adhesion and water retention. In addition, soaring food prices in Russia have led consumers to pay more attention to cost-effective potato products. According to relevant data, the price per kilogram of potato is at least 73 percent more expensive than at the beginning of the year, and the price of butter has risen by more than 30 percent. In this case, potato flakes and starch, as relatively stable and widely used products, are expected to increase further. In the future, with the increasing attention of Russian consumers to healthy food, the demand for potato products with low sugar, low fat and high nutrition will be more vigorous.
