Starch production is an isolation of starch from plant sources. It takes place in starch plants. Starch industry is a part of food processing which is using starch as a starting material for production of starch derivatives, hydrolysates, dextrins.

maize (in America) – 70%,
potatoes (in Europe) – 12%,
wheat - 8%,
tapioca - 9%,
