About pistachios, in shell
cpc code 01375 covers the import and export of pistachios in their shell. Pistachios are a popular tree nut that have been cultivated for centuries, primarily in the Middle East and Mediterranean regions. As a valuable agricultural commodity, the global trade in pistachios plays a significant role in the broader food and agricultural economy.
Production process
Pistachios are typically harvested by hand or with mechanical shakers that dislodge the nuts from the trees. The harvested nuts are then dried, often in the sun, to reduce their moisture content. After drying, the nuts are processed to remove the outer shell, leaving the edible kernel inside. This shelling process can be done manually or using specialized machinery.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the pistachio industry include the pistachio trees themselves, which require specific climatic conditions to thrive. Irrigation, fertilizers, and pest control measures are also important inputs. Processing the harvested nuts into a finished product requires equipment such as drying facilities, shelling machines, and packaging materials.
Production outputs
The primary output of cpc code 01375 is shelled pistachios, which can then be further processed, packaged, and distributed for retail sale or industrial use. The shelled pistachios may be consumed directly as a snack food or used as an ingredient in various food products, such as 15330 Confectionery, 15410 Bakery products, and 15800 Other food products n.e.c..
