Other raw vegetable materials, n.e.c.

cpc code 01990, 'Other raw vegetable materials, n.e.c.', encompasses a diverse range of unprocessed plant-based materials that are not classified elsewhere. These materials play a vital role in various industries, from agriculture and manufacturing to pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. This code represents an important segment of the broader raw materials trade, contributing to the global supply chain and supporting economic activities across multiple sectors.

The production techniques for the materials classified under cpc code 01990 vary widely, as they encompass a diverse range of plant-based materials. In general, these materials are harvested, collected, or extracted from their natural sources, such as forests, fields, or aquatic environments. The specific methods used depend on the type of material, its natural habitat, and the intended use. Some materials may undergo basic processing, such as drying, cleaning, or sorting, to prepare them for further downstream applications.

The main inputs required for the production of the materials classified under cpc code 01990 are the natural resources themselves, such as various plant species, as well as the necessary equipment and labor for harvesting, collecting, and processing these materials. Depending on the specific material, additional inputs may include transportation, storage, and processing facilities, as well as any specialized equipment or machinery required for extraction, cleaning, or packaging.

The materials classified under cpc code 01990 are used as inputs for a wide range of industries and applications. These include 01910 Plants and parts of plants, including seeds and fruits, used primarily in perfumery, in pharmacy, or for insecticidal, fungicidal or similar purposes, 01920 Vegetable materials of a kind used primarily for plaiting, 01930 Vegetable products n.e.c., and 32520 Medicinal and botanical products. The diverse nature of these materials ensures their utility across various sectors, contributing to the overall economic activity and supporting the global supply chain.
