In 2023, France dominated the European starch production with over 31% share by weight, though experiencing a decline. Germany, Belgium, and Italy followed, with Belgium showing notable growth at 11.74% year-on-year. Lithuania's production share surged dramatically, while other regions like Estonia experienced rapid expansion, albeit from smaller bases. Conversely, the UK's share decreased sharply. France, Poland, and Austria witnessed declines, with Austria facing a significant drop.
Future trends suggest monitoring the European market for shifting production dynamics influenced by technological advancements and regulatory policies. Sustainability measures and demand in food and non-food starch applications might alter country rankings and production strategies.
