China’s MY2017/18 fresh potato production is forecast at 97 million metric tons (MMT), about a 5 percent increase from the estimated 92 MMT in MY2016/17, due to a continued expansion of potato area. China’s Frozen French Fries (FFF) production is forecast at 250,000 MT, a 10 percent increase from 230,000 MT in MY2016/17, driven by strong domestic demand. Post forecasts China’s MY2017/18 FFF imports at 120,000 MT, about a 5 percent decrease from 126,620 MT in MY2016/17, due to increased domestic production. The United States continues to dominate China’s FFF import market.
