An Analysis of Supply and Demand of Potato and Its Products in the World and China
With the continuous promotion of the strategy of developing potato as a staple food,the supply and demand of potato and its products in the world and China has undergone important changes.The pa-per aimed to further clarify its changing characteristics,and to provide data reference for future supply and demand forecast.It carried out a quantitative analysis of the changes of potato production and demand in the world and China by using geometric means and other data description methods.The results of data a-nalysis show that:First,the potato growing area,production and yield per unit in the world and China all show an increasing trend,and the proportion of potato growing area in China is constantly increasing,and China has become the country with the largest potato production in the world,but its yield per unit is al-ways lower than the world average level.Second,the scale of international trade in potato and its products is increasing,and the proportion of potato trade in world agricultural products trade is relatively stable.Third,the per capita potato consumption in the world showed a slight downward trend,but the rebound trend was obvious.In China,the demand for potato and its products continues to increase,the proportion of unprocessed potato consumption is the largest and continues to grow,the demand for potato is growing,and the trend of view potato as staple food is increasingly prominent.Therefore,in order to solve the prob-lems of the mismatch between the low yield per unit of potato and the rigid growth of domestic potato con-sumption demand,it is necessary to firmly protect the potato growing area and increase the investment in potato planting technology and superior seed cultivation.
