Abstract:

Abstract Sweet potato flour is one of the derivative products of sweet potato, especially for raw materials or additives in the food industry. The processing of sweet potato-based products must also be balanced with existing environmental management. For this reason, there is a need for suitable methods to deal with processes that produce minimised wastes that harm the environment. Cleaner production is an approach that offers various environmental benefits for the sweet potato flour industry. Identification of cleaner production alternatives was carried out by the quick scan method for minimising the presence of waste in the sweet potato flour industry. The feasibility of the cleaner production design was analysed by considering technical, environmental, financial, and economic aspects. Identification of water use was done by calculating the water footprint in the whole production process. The water footprint was calculated by adding up the green, blue, and grey water footprints to obtain the total water usage in the production process. The use of water for planting sweet potato (green water) is estimated to be approx. 1.093 m3/ton of sweet potato flour. With a sweet potato flour yield of 50.8%, the production of sweet potato flour requires a water volume (blue water) of 1.32 m3/ton of sweet potato flour. The following cleaner production alternatives were identified as prospective for waste minimisation in the small-scale industry, including good manufacturing practices, repairing flour machines, drying using a greenhouse, training in the selection of raw materials and training in standard operating procedures (SOPs) for flour production, and utilisation of sweet potato peel as animal feed. With the implementation of cleaner production and more efficient use of water, it is expected that the sweet potato flour industry will become a more sustainable industry.

Abstract:

Light color after frying and sprouting are the main quality parameters evaluated by the pre-fried potato processing industry. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the suitability for use by the pre-fried potato processing industry, the cultivars Asterix, Corsica, Edison, Lionheart and Markies through the sprouting and post-frying color of the sticks. For this, the tubers were stored at 8 °C (RH 90% ± 2) for up to 180 days. Sprouting started at 60 days with the exception of ‘Lionheart’, which started sprouting at 120 days. At 150 and 180 days, all cultivars showed large sprouts, but still suitable for the processing industry. Visually, the Asterix cultivar remained in category 3 and the most cultivars in 2. The parameter L * reduced with the storage time in all cultivars, indicating the browning of the sticks, which was accompanied by the reduction of parameter b *, indicating less yellowing. It is concluded that All cultivars can be used by the processing industry after storage at 8 °C for 180 days. These results are important to the process industry due to difficult from storage of tubers under refrigeration in reason of browning during fried.

Abstract:

Purpose. Potato is one of the most important crops to ensure food security globally; potato growing is also a source of income and livelihood for the poorest, especially in developing countries. In view of this, studies on factors affecting potato prices could stimulate agripolitical measures in food security, rural wealth, potato industry and small farms’ development. This paper aims to explore whether the factors affecting potato prices for business entities and farm households operating in the same (but peasant-driven) market are different. Based on the available statistical data and the research background, we focus on the relationships between wages, production (yields and harvested areas), and potato producers’ prices in Ukraine. Methodology / approach. Using the cross-sectional data on potato producer prices, harvested area, and yields of enterprises and households, and average monthly wages in Ukrainian regions for 2018–2020, we used a system of simultaneous equations to model behavior of potato producers’ prices (for enterprises and households) through the two-stage least squares method. Results. The Ukrainian potato industry is featured high rates of potato self-provision (through subsistence farming) and the dominance of farm households at the market, allowing exploring trends and factors of peasant-driven potato market development. The results obtained through modelling of an interrelation of potato producer prices indicate different potato price determinants for enterprises and households: price in enterprises adjusts to fluctuations of potato yields in both enterprises and households (calculated average elasticities are -0.27 and -0.55, respectively, indicating the more significant influence of the latter); households’ price responds to changes of enterprises’ potato prices and average monthly wage rates (with average elasticities 0.49 and 1.35, respectively). Originality / scientific novelty. Research results empirically evidence that households’ dominance and a large portion of food self-provision constrain the potato industry development. This enhances a better understanding of subsistence farming’s impact on markets and food industry development and extends the theoretical framework of households’ economics and peasant-driven market functioning. Practical value / implications. Understanding the role of households in the slow (obstacle) development of the potato industry reveals the need for a policy promoting storage and potato processing capacities development that could mitigate the adverse effects of peasant-driven market performance, decrease price vulnerability, and facilitate potato industry growth.

Abstract:

All around the world, particularly in developed countries, fresh potato consumption decreased while the consumption as fast food, snack and convenience food was increased. Potato processing industry has by-products such as cull potato, peel, pulp, and waste water. These by-products can be utilized for production of ethyl alcohol, single cell protein, microbial enzymes, lactic acid, organic fertilizer and bioethanol. The pulp obtained from the processing of potato for starch production can be considered as an energy source with starch content in animal nutrition. Recently, potato peel with the contents of bioactive compounds (chlorogenic, caffeic, gallic, protocatechuic acids) and their antioxidant and antimicrobial effects have been intensely focused on. Conversion of by-products of potato processing industry into value-added products is economically important. It was reviewed here by-products of potato processing industry and their evaluation in animal nutrition.

Abstract:

Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) causes a serious disease of potato, affecting yield and tuber quality. To control the disease, the Canadian seed certification program maintains a zero tolerance for the disease and a requirement that all nuclear stock, the micropropagated plantlets from which each lot of seed potatoes is initiated, is tested using reverse polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (rPAGE) to ensure freedom from PSTVd. Moreover, seed potato fields are visually inspected during two or more annual field inspections for the presence of PSTVd and viruses. Symptoms of PSTVd have not been observed during field inspections for at least the last 25 years. Prior to 1989, seed potato stocks in the provinces of Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick were tested using rPAGE and nucleic acid dot blot hybridization for the presence of the viroid, and no infections were found (1). Similar surveys for PSTVd in Canada's western provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, and Saskatchewan also failed to detect the viroid (2). During 2000–2004, the PSTVd survey was extended to the provinces of Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland in which 211, 188, 95, 6, and 10 samples, respectively, were collected. Each sample consisted of 400 randomly selected leaves from selected potato fields representing seed lots registered in one of the four Elite seed classes or in the Foundation and Certified classes, except for a small number of samples (11%) that were from commercial nonseed fields. Leaves were tested using the dot blot procedure in composites of 50 leaves as described (2). Approximately 10% of the samples were retested using rPAGE followed by northern blotting to confirm dot blot results. All dot blot and rPAGE/northern blot results were negative for PSTVd. The cumulative results of the PSTVd surveys in all 10 Canadian provinces and the absence of the disease in the field as determined by annual visual inspection meets the International Standards of Phytosanitary Measures for the Requirements for the Establishment of Pest Free Areas (3). Hence, Canada declares that PSTVd is absent within its potato industry. A similar declaration was made by the United States recently on the basis of similar field inspection and survey data (4).

Abstract:

The potato processing industry is among the biggest water-consuming industries, using an average of 17 L of water per 1 kg of processed product. Taking into account that the potato is the fourth-most-important non-cereal food crop with a global production of 376 million tons a year, this branch is a large wastewater producer. Potato-processing wastewater is highly loaded and thus difficult to treat through conventional methods, especially when a low energetic input for environmental benignancy is required. In this review, it was shown that microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are an excellent technology for sustainable potato wastewater treatment. MFCs allow for potato wastewater COD removal with efficiencies as high as 99%, which is accompanied by electricity production that may reach 3.7 W/m2. Thus, the recently published research reviewed in this paper indicates that simultaneous power production and removal of chemical oxygen demand make MFCs superior to conventional treatment methods. Encouraging results and the unique advantages of MFC technology, like significant water and energy use reduction, give a promising perspective on potato-processing wastewater treatments.

Abstract:

In this study, we evaluate potato pulp waste as a potential raw material for obtaining yeast biomass. A portion of the carbohydrates in the potato pulp waste can thereby be converted into more valuable protein. The potato pulp waste was analyzed in terms of protein and ash content, dry mass, simple sugars, and starch content. Two kinds of hydrolysis were performed (thermo-acidic and enzymatic) to produce media for cultivating Candida guilliermondii and Pichia stipitis. The hydrolysates and post-cultivation leachates were analyzed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The highest biomass yield after 48 h (39.3%) was noted for Candida guilliermondii yeast grown on enzymatic hydrolysate-based medium. Our results prove that potato waste pulp is a promising raw material for the production of yeast single-cell protein (SCP).

Abstract:

Nowadays, there is a requirement for industries to eliminate carbon from their energy mix and substitute it with greener options. This calls for investment in efforts to facilitate the scaling up of technical advancements. Because of the huge amount of waste, a life cycle strategy has been used by industries, especially the food industry, to lessen the environmental impact of their products. One of the sectors that burdens the environment with a significant amount of waste is the potato processing industrial sector. The current study focuses on the valorisation of all the potato processing waste streams (potato peels, potato tubers and slices, starch and low-quality chips) towards bioethanol production at a pilot level. After their physico-chemical characterisations, several experimental trials were performed in order to determine the optimum pretreatment and hydrolysis conditions for each waste stream. Acid hydrolysis, alkaline hydrolysis and hydrothermal pretreatment were examined when no pretreatment resulted in low ethanol yields (below 60%). The optimum results that were obtained were applied in a pilot plant of 200L to examine the upscaling factor. It was verified that upscaling by 1000 times generates comparable and, in some cases, greater results. From the integration of the results and the mass balances of a typical potato processing company, a full-scale implementation plan was also set up, where it was calculated that around 2 m3 bioethanol per week could be produced.

Abstract:

The Wisconsin potato crop is managed intensively through multiple inputs of pesticide, fertilizer, and irrigation. Beginning in 1979, a multidisciplinary team at the Univ. of Wisconsin developed an effective Integrated Pest Management Program to address key management decisions associated with this crop. The program fostered the development of several private IPM businesses and continues to help increase the acceptance of IPM technology by the potato industry. Results of component and integrative research, funded by industry, state, and federal sources, provided the essential ingredients for development of computer software now used for managing the potato crop on ≈ 70,000 acres (28,330 ha) of potatoes in a multistate area. The software helps growers determine the need for and timing of critical crop inputs. By reducing or eliminating unneeded pesticide and irrigation applications, the software helps to improve overall production efficiency. Industry adoption of this software is providing the impetus for development of more comprehensive software that includes additional aspects of potato production as well as the production of crops grown in rotation with potato.

Abstract:

The fashion industry is one of the creative sectors that has significantly impacted Indonesia's economic growth. During this pandemic, the Ministry of Industry held a training program to spur the competitiveness and productivity of the textile and textile product (TPT) industry so that they can continue to run their businesses amid the pressure of the Covid-19 pandemic impact. The industries must be more innovative to be competitive in domestic and foreign markets. In this study, purple sweet potato peel was applied as a textile coloring pigment, considering its novelty and innovation value. It is expected to be an innovation in Indonesian creative industry products. So far, in the realm of textiles and fashion, purple sweet potato peel has been used as a natural textile dye, but it is less popular than other natural dyes. In addition, in Indonesia, purple sweet potato is a plant that grows throughout the year, with high quantity production and consumption rates, so that the waste of it can be used as a natural textile dye. To optimize the use of purple sweet potato peel, this study analyzes the effect of indicators on the dyeing process: the dyeing duration and the fixative used

Abstract:

Sweet potatoes have become increasingly popular among consumers due to their health benefits, and, as a result, sweet potato production has been growing rapidly over the last decade in the United States. However, the industry is facing major challenges, including the risk of disease outbreaks and adverse weather events, which could potentially have a significant impact on the market. However, the economic literature on the sweet potato commodity is limited. This study models the U.S. sweet potato market price response to supply changes and derives elasticity estimates. This information is essential for understanding the sweet potato market and for simulating the impacts of potential supply shocks, given the challenges that the industry is facing. We found that prices are highly sensitive to supply. North Carolina, the largest sweet potato producer in the country, dominates the domestic market and exerts significantly larger influences on market prices than other producing states.

Abstract:

Abstract Industries that process potato chips still use imported raw materials because the potatoes grown by farmers are table potato varieties that are not suitable for making chips. The research aims to obtain raw material varieties suitable for national chips industry. The study was arranged using a Randomized Complete Block Design with 4 Replications. The number of genotypes tested was 6 genotypes derived from breeding programs of Ministry of Agriculture, the plant population per plot was 60 plants. The test results obtained the Bonito Agrihorti variety with very good quality attributes of processed chips such as high Specific Gravity (Sg) of 1.080, low reducing sugar of 0.07%, high starch content of 11.44% and also high yield productivity of 24.5 ton Ha-1. Test frying was obtained that Bonito Agrihorti showed excellent due to taste, chip color, crispness, appearance with a score of 4. The impact of the results of this study can be used as a recommendation for potato chip growers as well as industries to use the Bonito Agrihorti variety as an industrial raw material and can substitute imports industrial potato raw materials.

Abstract:

Potato is the fourth important cultivated crop in Ukraine; the potato cyst nematode Globodera rostochiensis, Ro1 consists one of the most serious threats to its industry. A total of 3769 cultivars and hybrids were assessed for resistance to G. rostochiensis from 1992 to 2002. On the base of the two-stages assay, resistance was identified at 419 and partial resistance at 90 genotypes, which had inherited resistance from 39 resistant cultivars and 23 hybrids. Resistance of the 74 genotypes was confirmed in both greenhouse and field plots; their effectiveness in reduction of population densities of G. rostochiensis varied from 51 to 96% in one season. The tolerance of 5 Ukrainian potato resistant cultivars was investigated in the field plots and all of them were classified as intolerant.

Abstract The study was aimed at determination of time of heat transition through the layer of quince, apple, linen, rose pomace and potato pulp, as well as layer of potato starch and potato starch extruded with addition of above mentioned by-products. Additionally the attempt of creation a heat insulating barrier from researched raw material was made. The heat conductivity of researched materials was dependent on the type of material and its humidity. Extruded potato starch is characterized by smaller heat conductivity than potato starch extruded with addition of pomace. The obtained rigid extruded starch moulders were characterized by higher heat insulating properties than the loose beads. It is possible to use starch and by-products of food industry for production of heat insulating materials.

Abstract:

Potato is the third most important food crop on the planet. The potato processing industry produces a variety of food products and has high effluent generation with high organic load and solids content. These must be treated before being disposed of in water bodies. One of the options for treatment of industrial effluents widely studied in the literature is the use of natural coagulants. In this context, this work aims to evaluate the efficiency of effluent treatment of a potato processing industry in Brazil through the use of coagulants based on Moringa Oleifera. Five flocculation essays (Jar Essay) were performed, evaluating the use of Moringa Oleifera both in direct use (flour crushed) and in saline solution, for different coagulant mass and volume values. Turbidity removal rates close to 93% were obtained when using Moringa Oleifera in saline as a coagulant, which is the most efficient use of Moringa seeds compared to their direct use. BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand) removal was also high, with values around 90%. The Moringa planting area required for effluent treatment of the studied industry is 1.14 ha. The obtained results allowed the identification of the optimal coagulant dosages to be used and demonstrate the feasibility of using Moringa Oleifera to treat potato processing effluent.

Abstract:

Potato peel (PP) is the major underutilised by-product in the potato-processing industry and a potential source of valuable bioactive molecules. Among them, glycoalkaloids and polyphenols are important precursors for steroid hormones and natural antioxidants, respectively. Moreover, the huge quantities of industrial potato-peel waste that are produced are a rich source of primary metabolites, which principally include starch as well as non-starch polysaccharides, proteins, lipids, lignin and cellulose. All carbohydrates are prone to undergo fermentation to produce ethanol, lactic and acetic acid. Finally, the main portion of PP is made up of alcohol-insoluble matter with a dietary fibre content of approximatively 40%. The present review summarises the recent advances and emerging technologies in potato-peel extraction and further valorisation processing in the food industry.

Abstract:

Potato is an important crop, used not only for food production but also for various industrial applications. With the introduction of the potato as a staple food strategy, the potato industry in China has grown rapidly. However, issues related to bacterial wilt, exacerbated by factors such as seed potato transportation and continuous cropping, have become increasingly severe in the primary potato cultivation regions of China, leading to significant economic losses. The extensive genetic diversity of Ralstonia solanacearum (R. solanacearum), which is the pathogen of bacterial wilt, has led to a lack of highly resistant potato genetic resources. There is a need to identify and cultivate potato varieties with enhanced resistance to reduce the adverse impact of this disease on the industry. We screened 55 accessions of nine different wild potato species against the bacterial wilt pathogen R. solanacearum PO2-1, which was isolated from native potato plants and belongs to phylotype II. Three accessions of two species (ACL24-2, PNT880-3, and PNT204-23) were identified with high resistance phenotypes to the tested strains. We found these accessions also showed high resistance to different phylotype strains. Among them, only PNT880-3 was capable of flowering and possessed viable pollen, and it was diploid. Consistent with the high resistance, decreased growth of R. solanacearum was detected in PNT880-3. All these findings in our study reveal that the wild potato PNT880-3 was a valuable resistance source to bacterial wilt with breeding potential.

Abstract:

Purpose. Potato fruit juice, a residue of starch industry, contains up to 2.5% [w/w] of proteins that are potentially valuable raw-materials of food, cosmetic, and pharma industries. The recovery of protein from the potato fruit juice is limited by the lack of industrially feasible concentration and separation technologies. The present research thus aimed at development of such process for the separation of active protease inhibitors from potato fruit juice.Methods. Low temperature mechanical vapor recompression evaporation was applied for concentration of potato fruit juice followed by ethanol precipitation for recovery of active proteins. The effects of precipitation temperature and precipitative agents were investigated employing response surface modeling methodology.Results. Concentration of potato fruit juice by evaporation was successful without loss of trypsin inhibition activity. Precipitation using 6.5 M ethanol at low temperature (0–+4°C) was found suitable for the recovery of active protease inhibitors from the concentrate. Piloting at starch industry yielded 50% of total proteins, with a high quantity of active protease inhibitors and a minor inclusion of other proteins.Conclusion. Concentration by low-temperature evaporation, followed by ethanol precipitation of protease inhibitors at optimized temperature, is an attractive option for valorization of potato fruit juice.

Abstract:

Potato (Solanum tuberosum) production in Canada and the United States totals approximately 30 × 106 Mg yr-1. Approximately half of this is unsuitable for human consumption. This potato by-product comprises cull potatoes and potato processing waste (PPW). Liquid waste from processing plants can be applied to agricultural land. With strict environmental monitoring and control, crops such as corn (Zea mays L.), vegetables and grass can be used to divert large volumes of liquid waste. Solid waste and culls have traditionally been put in landfills or disposed of on agricultural land as a fertilizer. However these can be diverted from landfill sites or agricultural land and used as a high-quality animal feed, principally in beef feedlots. Research has shown that PPW can replace corn and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) grain without negative effects on growth of beef cattle or meat quality. Indeed, efficiency of animal growth per unit diet intake is improved. These effects have been observed with diets containing up to 80% PPW. Results to date suggest that PPW is a valuable livestock feed ingredient and has no deleterious effects on beef quality. In areas where PPW is available, feeding to beef cattle represents a viable alternative to other disposal options. Key words: Potato, processing waste, by-product, cattle, land disposal

Abstract:

Myriad studies have been conducted on commodity markets in different parts of the world. However, such studies have yielded inconsistent results on various facets of market structure and market conduct, implying that each market may have its distinctive characteristics which impact on its performance. In Sub-Saharan Africa, the growth of sweet potato industry is hindered by lack of information on sweet potato market structural characteristics. Kenya’s sweet potato industry is facing a similar challenge. This scenario calls for a baseline survey on the sweet potato market structural characteristics and conduct as a basis for subsequent robust studies on the possible nexus between the market structure, conduct and performance of the industry. The study adopted a descriptive survey design based on interpretivism research paradigm. A sample size of 384 farmers, 166 retailers and 55 wholesalers were taken. Pretested questionnaires were used to gather perception of the respondents on various parameters based on a five-point Likert scale. The views were then summarized in terms of means scores. It was established that the sweet potato market was imperfect since there were notable elements of potato differentiation and barriers to entry into the market. Such barriers included competition from other traders and uncertainties in the demand for sweet potato. The situation was exacerbated by lack of suitable storage facilities given the perishable nature of the commodity. High market concentration was noted at the wholesale level, a likely indicator of price collusion and exploitation by the few large sellers that dominated the market. In this regard, there is need to enhance value addition activities that can enable the market players especially the farmers to be more competitive within the supply chain. Efforts should also be made to eliminate the identified market barriers

Abstract:

Potato is one of the most important food crops in the world, which is of great significance for sustainable agricultural development. Mechanized planting is the essential technical link in mechanized production, which has an essential component in the potato growing industry. The mechanization of potato planting technology is an effective method of increasing potato yields. A variety of potato planting technologies and machines have been developed around the world. This review presents the research progress and application status of potato planters and planting technology worldwide. It classifies the planting technology into four types: research of materials characteristics for potatoes, soil cultivation, seed potato separation, and zero-speed seeding. The most critical seed potato separation technology was divided into six types according to the structure of the seed metering device. Detailed features have been provided for some typical potato planters and soil cultivation machines. Finally, the developing trend of intelligent planting technology was analyzed, and some suggestions were proposed to promote the development of potato planters.
