Germany and Poland saw slight year-on-year increases while Belgium surged by 28.37%. France, the Netherlands, and Sweden experienced declines.

Future trends to monitor include increased demand for processed potato products globally and potential trade policy changes within the EU. Innovations in agricultural technology and sustainability practices may influence production efficiency and export growth. Additionally, geopolitical factors could impact trade routes and market accessibility, particularly for European exporters navigating fluctuating global demands.
