STARCH PRODUCTION IN RUSSIA

Abstract

The nutritional value of starch is noted. The structure of potato processing products is given. The production of modified starches is one of the promising and underdeveloped areas in our country. In the structure of the starch market in 2019 in Russia, modified starch is 31.3%. The current state of starch production in Russia is considered. For 5 years, the Russian starch market has grown from 347 thousand tons to 471 thousand tons. An analysis of the structure of the starch market in Russia in 2019 is given. The largest share in the market structure is accounted for by corn starch - 32.3%. A method has been developed for introducing new energy-saving ultrasonic technologies into existing starch production lines. The introduction of high-yielding hybrids of waxy maize into production will provide cheap domestic raw materials for the production of high-quality starch in Russia, which in turn will make it possible to abandon the import of expensive imported raw materials. Recommendations for the use of modified starches in the meat industry have been developed. The expediency of using in the technology of protein-free bread of tapioca starch in an amount of up to 10% instead of the mass of potato or corn has been established, which contributes to the improvement of the organoleptic indicators of the quality of products and the extension of their shelf life. In the development of starch production in Russia, support from the state is extremely important: investment and other benefits for industry enterprises.
