The Global Potato-Processing Industry: A Review of Production, Products, Quality and Sustainability.
Review in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The global potato industry has changed dramatically over the past half century-the potato-planting area in Poland decreased from 2,819,200 hectares in 1961 to 188,580 hectares in 2023, representing a 1394.96% relative decrease; South Africa's potato production increased from 332,000 tons in 1961 to 2.42 million tons in 2023, representing a 627.60% relative increase. This study provides a comprehensive comparison of the potato-processing industries in China and major global producers. The global potato-processing market was valued at USD 40.97 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 60.08 billion by 2031, with significant variations in production and consumption patterns across countries. As the world's largest potato producer, China processes approximately 15% of its total potato output, whereas India, the second-largest producer, processes only about 7%. In contrast, developed countries such as the United States, Canada, and leading European nations-including Germany, the Netherlands, France, and Belgium-demonstrate significantly higher levels of processing, underpinned by advanced technologies, automation, and efficient quality-control systems. In order to conduct an in-depth analysis of the competitiveness of China's potato-processing industry, this paper employs the Diamond Model to carry out relevant research. Despite rapid progress, China's potato-processing industry still lags behind these global leaders in key aspects such as automation, production efficiency, and product quality. Differences remain evident in major processed potato products, including French fries, potato chips, potato flakes, and starch, as well as in raw-material supply chains, environmental sustainability, and market competitiveness. However, China's role in the global potato-processing industry is evolving. A major milestone was reached in 2022 when China became a net exporter of frozen French fries for the first time, signaling a shift in its position in the international market. This transformation highlights China's emergence as a key player in global French fry exports and suggests a potential restructuring of the industry. While challenges remain, the growing acceptance of Chinese French fries in international markets reflects improving product quality. Future industry trends point toward increased automation, product innovation, circular economy practices, and greater international market integration. To enhance its competitiveness, China must further modernize its processing industry, adopt cutting-edge technologies, strengthen quality control, and expand its global footprint to secure a stronger position in the evolving international potato-processing landscape.
