Oil-cake and other solid residues, of vegetable fats or oils

CPC v2.1 Code: 2191

About oil-cake and other solid residues, of vegetable fats or oils

cpc code 2191 covers the production and trade of oil-cake and other solid residues derived from the processing of vegetable fats and oils. This industry plays a crucial role in the global agricultural and food supply chains, as the byproducts generated during the extraction of vegetable oils are widely used as animal feed and fertilizers. The economic significance of this industry extends beyond its direct contribution, as it supports the broader vegetable oil and oilseed processing sectors, which are essential components of the agricultural and food manufacturing industries.

Production process

The production of oil-cake and other solid residues under cpc code 2191 typically involves the mechanical or chemical extraction of vegetable oils from oilseeds, such as soybeans, rapeseed, sunflower seeds, and others. After the oil is extracted, the remaining solid material, known as oil-cake or meal, is processed and dried to produce a high-protein animal feed or a nutrient-rich organic fertilizer.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of oil-cake and other solid residues under cpc code 2191 include oilseeds, such as 0111 Soybeans, 0112 Groundnuts, and 0113 Sunflower seeds, as well as the machinery and equipment necessary for oil extraction, drying, and processing. Additionally, energy sources, such as electricity or fuel, and labor are essential inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industry covered by cpc code 2191 are oil-cake and other solid residues, which are used as animal feed or organic fertilizers. These byproducts are often consumed by industries covered under 0141 Raising of dairy cattle, 0142 Raising of other cattle and buffaloes, and 0149 Raising of other animals, as well as the 2010 Manufacture of basic chemicals, fertilizers and nitrogen compounds, plastics and synthetic rubber in primary forms industry.
