Therefore, it is necessary to have quality standards for raw materials that function as parameters and limits for an acceptable raw material which will then be processed into a product. Supervision was carried out visually with parameters of color, texture, shape, and size of white sweet potato which was carried out for 8 days. The analytical method used is the descriptive method, check sheet, and Pareto diagram. The results of this study will be compared with the quality standard of sweet potato according to SNI 01-4493-1998.
