The Potato Protein Market is Expected to Reach USD144m by 2028

The potato protein market is expected to reach USD144m by 2028, up from USD105m in 2022, at a CAGR of 5.4% in terms of volume during the projection period.

Potato proteins have many nutritional advantages, and various parts have diverse applications in the food, beverage, and feed industries, which helps to fuel the potato protein market among customers.

“Potato protein concentrates is the type which dominated the market in 2022,” according to a recent Markets and Markets report.

Potato protein concentrates are widely used in the feed business, particularly in bovine and pig feed, due to their high nutritive value. However, owing to its high instability after separation by thermal coagulation of potato liquid, potato protein finds very restricted use in the culinary business. Concentrates have a relatively modest glycoalkaloids concentration.

There have been efforts to use potato protein concentrate in human ingestion, but they have had limited success due to the desiccated coagulate's unpleasant flavor, scent, and texture. Potato protein concentrates can be a more affordable option for seafood dishes. Because of its high protein and essential amino acid concentration, it is used as a potential fish meal substitute. Potapro 1500, a potato protein concentrate product from KMC Ingredients (Denmark), is perfect for livestock feed uses.

“Consumer demand for organic potato protein is in growing demand due to health benefits,” the report reveals.

Organic potato protein is a byproduct of the creation of organic potato flour. Following the creation of starch, the residual juice is carefully dried, and the brownish-grey powder that remains is organic potato protein. It contains a lot of amino acids like lysine, methionine, cystine, and cysteine.

The organic protein product is an ideal nutrient for all animals and is a high-quality, readily digestible protein. Organic potato protein is produced without the use of herbicides or chemicals. The causes for customers' growing preference for organic food over conventional food are personal health and well-being. Because of the nutritional substance and health advantages of organically grown potatoes, consumers are becoming more interested in these goods.
