An extensive assortment of potato varieties in connection with different growing conditions was analyzed concerning several starch quality criteria. Significant variations were evident for starch content, phosphorus content of starch, and granule size distribution. On the contrary, amylose content varied only little. Environment had influence on starch content and viscosity behaviour. Fertilization effects could not be observed. This underlines the significant variety effect. The results clearly point out that an improved accentuation of potato starch quality is possible. In connection with a selected variety spectrum and altered separation strategies new markets for potato starch utilizers can be opened within short time.
