虽然无人知晓马铃薯抵达欧洲的具体日期,但马铃薯首先抵达欧洲的地方可能是西班牙的加那利群岛,其中至少早在16世纪中期人们就开始种植马铃薯(后来的记录表明,1573年在塞维利亚的de la Sangre医院,马铃薯是提供给该医院患者食用的)。
虽然最初马铃薯的花卉比其作为粮食作物更受欢迎,但在直到20世纪90年代大部分时间里,马铃薯是西班牙农业的主要支柱,年产量超过500万吨。
然而,今天,像西欧其他地方一样,西班牙的马铃薯产量正在减少。2007年,该国生产了250万吨块茎,而收获面积从1990年的27万公顷减少到了不到9万公顷。因此,西班牙现在是主要的马铃薯进口国 。
自1990年以来,原料和加工马铃薯的年进口量从39.5万吨增加到120万吨,主要从法国、德国、意大利和摩洛哥进口。
