Abstract: 【Objective】Survey and analysis on potato development status in Guangxi were conducted, and put forward development suggestions and countermeasures for the existing problems, in order to provide reference for the development of potato industry and government decision-making departments in Guangxi.【Method】Based on the field investigation and data in the main potato producing counties(cities, districts), main planting bases(cooperatives) and processing and sales enterprises in Guangxi, the development status and main problems of potato cultivation, processing and trade in Guangxi were analyzed.【Result】Since 2014 to 2019, the planting area of the potato in Guangxi was gradually widened, and the planting mode and cultivation technology tended to be diversified;the average per unit yield of potao increased from 17.10 t/ha to 21.30 t/ha, but the total planting area decreased from 7.76×10⁴ ha to 5.12×10⁴ ha, resulting in the total yield decreased from 132.70×10⁴ t to 109.06×10⁴ t. In addition, there were only a few potato processing enterprises, only 2 large-scale production and registered trademark potato processing enterprises, processing products were mainly vermicelli and noodles. Fresh potatoes were mainly sold to other provinces, most of which were used for fresh food and a few were processed and exported. Finally, there were some problems, such as weak ability of disaster prevention and reduction, shortage of seed potato, non-standard cultivation technology, low conversion rate of scientific and technological achievements, seasonal decline in prices, intensified domestic competition and lagging processing technology, which seriously restricted the development of potato industry.【Suggestion】Develop green production and create advantageous production areas;improve and standardize the supply system of virus-free seed potato and improve the supply capacity of high-quality seed potato;strengthen the research of industry, universities and optimize the scientific and technological support system;cultivate leading enterprises and build Gui brand;increase policy guidance and financial support, promote industrial integration and promote consumption.
