Suitability of potato for processing

Solanum tuberosum L.

A set of morphological and biochemical characteristics of a cultivar that determines its efficiency in the production of chips, french fries, starch, and other products. Key factors include composition stability during storage and the conformity of tuber physical parameters to the requirements of a…

In the reference 300 varieties crop Potato, where this is mentioned in the description.

For industrial potato processing, a high dry matter content of 20–24% or higher is critical. In the production of fried products, the content of reducing sugars must be minimal, typically no more than 0.25–0.4%, to prevent darkening of the product resulting from the Maillard reaction. Starch content determines both the yield of starch products and the textural characteristics of the finished item.

Morphological indicators include uniform tuber shape to minimize waste during mechanized cutting and peeling. Eye depth should not exceed 1.5 mm, as deep eyes increase processing losses. Cultivars must maintain their technological properties during storage, as changes in temperature regimes can lead to an undesirable increase in sugar levels and the loss of raw material suitability.
