However, the per capita consumption of potatoes is low. It is estimated that 25% of the potatoes, which
are spoiled due to various reasons such as transportataiton type of packing, non -availability of cold
storage capacities during harvesting season, glut in the market etc,. could be saved by making various
preserved potato products which has a great potenetial as this is considered as one of the traditional
