Eurostat: The EU potato sector – statistics on production, prices and trade

This extensive report, published by Eurostat and compiled by authors Antonella De Cicco and Jean-Claude Jeanty, draws a statistical portrait of the potato sector in the European Union. The overall aim is to offer the readers a statistical overview on a single commodity, vertically linking all the steps from field to market. A range of agricultural data from a number of Eurostat agricultural statistics (farm structure survey, annual crop production statistics, agricultural prices, agricultural economics accounts) were used – as well as trade and industrial production statistics – to depict the various stages in the process of bringing potatoes from the field to the market in the EU.
