Report Highlights

  • The global market for the structure of starch crop demand was more than 2.4 billion tons. At an average annual growth rate (AAGR) of 2.4%, this demand will reach almost 3.1 billion tons by 2015.
  • In industrialized countries direct food consumption may not change much since consumers will have the ability and be ready to pay higher prices for cereal and tuber crops and their manufactured products. In developing countries, however, the past trend to consume more potatoes and cereals on the expanse of other tubers will be reversed and people will tend to eat more sweet potato and cassava again.
  • Bio-ethanol starches have the highest growth potential, with a 10.3% AAGR and reaching more than 230 million tons by 2015.
