Organic cassava starch is derived from organically grown cassava (Manihot esculenta) roots, cultivated without synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, or genetic modification. The starch is extracted by washing, grating, and separating it from the fibrous components of the cassava roots. Organic cassava starch is often used as a thickener, stabilizer, or binder in food products such as soups, sauces, bakery items, and gluten-free products.
The primary types of organic cassava starch are modified cassava and native cassava. Modified cassava starch is altered chemically, physically, or enzymatically to enhance its properties for various industrial and food applications. The starch is available in liquid and dry forms, and it is utilized by various end-users, including food processing, textile, chemical, pharmaceutical, and other industries.

The organic cassava starch market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.7 billion in 2024 to $3.92 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing preference for natural and organic ingredients, growing demand for gluten-free products, rising use of non-GMO products, growing demand of clean-labeL products, and growing demand for convenience foods.
The organic cassava starch market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.87 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing consumption of gluten-free alternatives, increasing demand for processed foods, increasing organic processed food products, increasing consumption of gluten-free products, and increasing consumer demand for transparency and naturalness in their food choices. Major trends in the forecast period include development of new processing technologies, technological advancements, development of organic products, new processing technologies, and expanding applications of organic cassava starch.
The increasing demand for convenience foods is expected to drive the growth of the organic cassava starch market. Convenience foods, which are pre-packaged or pre-prepared for quick and easy consumption with minimal preparation time, cater to busy lifestyles and are typically ready-to-eat. The surge in demand for convenience foods is due to factors such as hectic lifestyles, lack of time for cooking, and the need for quick meal solutions. Organic cassava starch is a valuable ingredient in the convenience food industry as it enhances texture, stability, and shelf life while meeting the requirements for healthier and allergen-free food options. For instance, in 2023, the United States Department of Agriculture reported that the total value of US processed food products exported increased to $36.59 billion, a 1.7% rise from previous years. Consequently, the rising demand for convenience foods is boosting the organic cassava starch market.
Key companies in the organic cassava starch market are focusing on developing innovative products, such as chemical-free organic cassava starch, to meet the growing consumer demand for natural and sustainably produced food ingredients. These chemical-free products are derived from cassava roots through processes that avoid synthetic chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs) at any stage of production. For example, in May 2024, Tasuco Foods Co. Ltd., a Japan-based manufacturer of consumer staple products, launched a range of organic tapioca starch and cassava flour products under the Tasuko brand at THAIFEX - ANUGA ASIA 2024. Tasuko organic cassava flour is made from 100% organic material and certified by Organic Thailand. It is sourced from Thai farmers and designed for health-conscious consumers. This gentle, neutral-tasting flour is ideal for gluten-free, grain-free, and nut-free recipes, and it works well as a thickener in sauces and soups, as well as for batters and coatings.
In May 2023, UBE Group, a chemical company based in Japan, acquired Biom Company Limited for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition allows UBE Group to strengthen its partnership with Biom, aiming to advance enzyme technology and improve production processes for tapioca starch and cassava flour, with a special focus on organic variants. Biom Company Limited, a biotechnology startup located in Thailand, specializes in the development and commercialization of enzyme technologies and is actively engaged in the production and development of organic cassava starch.
