The world potato sector is undergoing major changes.

Until the early 1990s, most potatoes were grown and consumed in Europe, North America and countries of the former Soviet Union.

Since then, there has been a dramatic increase in potato production and demand in Asia, Africa and Latin America, where output rose from less than 30 million tonnes in the early 1960s to more than 165 million tonnes in 2007.

FAO data show that in 2005, for the first time, the developing world's potato production exceeded that of the developed world.

China is now the biggest potato producer, and almost a third of all potatoes is harvested in China and India.

7 of the biggest farms in the world

Image
The UK certainly has some world-class farms operating on its shores, but when it comes to size, how do we measure up? The average size of a UK holding is 81ha, which is significantly higher than much of the rest of Europe, including countries such as France and Germany, according to statistics gathered by the EU. Defra statistics also show if you take holdings with less than 20ha out of the equation, the average holding size in the UK rises to 142ha.
