Agricultural or forestry machinery and parts thereof
CPC v2.1 Code: 441
About agricultural or forestry machinery and parts thereof
cpc code 441 covers the production and trade of agricultural and forestry machinery, a critical sector that supports the global food and timber supply chains. This industry is responsible for manufacturing a wide range of equipment used in farming, logging, and other primary production activities. Its importance extends beyond the agricultural and forestry sectors, as the machinery and parts produced under this code are essential inputs for 01 Crop and animal production, hunting and related service activities and 02 Forestry and logging.
Production process
The production of agricultural and forestry machinery involves a range of manufacturing processes, including metal fabrication, assembly, and precision engineering. Key steps include the cutting, shaping, and welding of metal components, as well as the integration of electronic systems, hydraulics, and other specialized subsystems. Manufacturers often utilize computer-aided design (CAD) and computer numerical control (CNC) machining to ensure high levels of accuracy and efficiency.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of agricultural and forestry machinery include ferrous and non-ferrous metals, such as steel and aluminum, as well as a variety of electronic components, hydraulic systems, and other specialized parts. Manufacturers also rely on a range of production equipment, including CNC machines, welding tools, and assembly lines. Additionally, the industry requires skilled labor, including engineers, technicians, and assembly workers.
Production outputs
The primary outputs of cpc code 441 are a diverse range of agricultural and forestry machinery, including tractors, harvesters, loaders, chainsaws, and specialized equipment for tasks like planting, spraying, and timber harvesting. These products are then consumed by 01 Crop and animal production, hunting and related service activities and 02 Forestry and logging industries, as well as by individual farmers, foresters, and other end-users.
