Here is the analysis of sweet potato starch processing plant price

Take 1 ton of dry starch from the automatic sweet potato starch production line as an example. 5 tons of sweet potatoes and 10-15 tons of water are needed.

Other expenses: depreciation, taxation, etc. are calculated according to the actual situation of each user.

The profit is based on the actual sales at the local market price, minus the cost as a net profit.

[Note: Due to the different market conditions of sweet potato starch processing in different countries, the sweet potato price, water and electricity cost, labor cost and starch price standard are different, and the economic benefits of starch production will be different. Therefore, the data in this article is for reference only, please refer to the local market price.]
