The Global Organic Cassava Starch Market size is expected to reach $3.7 billion by 2031, rising at a market growth of 3.8% CAGR during the forecast period. In the year 2023, the market attained a volume of 207,602.6 tonnes experiencing a growth of 16.4% (2020-2023).
Beyond food, organic cassava starch has applications in various North American non-food industries. It is a biodegradable and sustainable ingredient in pharmaceuticals, personal care products, textiles, paper manufacturing, and bioplastics. Consequently, the North American region would acquire nearly 30% of the total market share by 2031. Also, the US market would consume 37,789.17 tonnes of native starch by 2031.
Cassava starch is inherently gluten-free, making it a suitable option for individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. In addition, cassava starch contains a higher amount of dietary fiber compared to refined starches. Therefore, high health and nutritional benefits are propelling the market’s growth.
Additionally, Consumers' growing health consciousness has increased demand for organic food products, driven by concerns about chemical residues from pesticides and fertilizers commonly used in conventional farming. Clean label trends emphasize transparency in food ingredients and production methods. With its natural and minimal processing approach, starch aligns with clean label preferences. Thus, increasing consumer demand for organic products drives the market's growth.
However, Organic farming methods typically require more labor-intensive practices than conventional agriculture. Furthermore, organic farming often operates at smaller scales than conventional agriculture, limiting economies of scale. In conclusion, the higher cost of organic production is hindering market growth.
