EEUU: Yellow potatoes continue gaining market share in North America

Yellow potatoes continue to gain market share and the gain is mostly at the expense of russets and whites, according to Ted Kreis, Northern Plains Potato Growers Association (NPPGA) marketing and communications director.

Red RiverValley is growing more yellows in recent years. In 2010, the valley produced just over 200,000 hundredweight (cwt.) of yellow potatoes. Just five years later in 2015 the valley produced 607,000 cwt., a three-fold increase. In 2016 the number increased even more despite some yellow losses in the northern valley. On a percentage basis, yellow potatoes made up just 6% of the Red RiverValley fresh crop in 2010; the past two years they have averaged 14.5%.

US wide white potatoes for the fresh market have been the big losers. Since the 2008 crop year white potato shipments have decreased 43.3% according to numbers compiled by the North American Potato Market News.  

So far, this season, Russet shipments mimic closely 2008 although russets are down 7.7% from 2009 when they hit a 10-year peak.
