摘要

India is the second largest producer of potato in the world, yet the export of table potato remains below 1% of national production. During peak harvest periods, domestic market gluts often depress farm prices, highlighting the need to strengthen export-oriented marketing channels. The present study is an attempt to analyse the growth and variability of potato export from India during 2000–2001 to 2023–2024 and examine its directional and destination flow. The results indicate that Indian table potato exports have gained momentum over the past two decades, with a gradual shift from traditional SAARC markets towards emerging destinations in Southeast Asia and the Middle East. Nepal remained a major traditional market, while Indonesia, Vietnam, Oman, the UAE, Kuwait, and Qatar showed increasing importance in recent years. However, export performance remained unstable in some destinations, and declining or discontinued trade with Sri Lanka, Singapore, Mauritius, Seychelles, and Russia requires focused attention. The study suggests that market-specific strategies, quality assurance, trade facilitation, and strengthening of export supply chains are essential for sustaining and expanding Indian table potato exports.
