About birds; live, other than birds of prey, psittaciformes, ostriches and emus (dromaius novaehollandiae)

HS code 010639 covers the trade of live birds, excluding birds of prey, parrots, ostriches, and emus. This industry plays a vital role in the global pet trade, as well as in the conservation and breeding of various avian species. The demand for these birds is driven by both hobbyists and specialized breeders, contributing to a thriving international market.

Production process

The production techniques for this industry involve the breeding and rearing of the birds in specialized facilities. Breeders carefully select and pair parent birds to produce healthy offspring, often using advanced incubation and brooding methods to ensure the chicks' survival. The birds are then raised in controlled environments, with a focus on providing proper nutrition, housing, and veterinary care to maintain their health and well-being.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for this industry include breeding stock, specialized feed and supplements, incubation and brooding equipment, and veterinary services. Breeders may also require permits and licenses to legally import, export, and trade the birds. Additionally, the industry relies on transportation infrastructure to facilitate the movement of live animals across borders.

Production outputs

The primary output of this industry is the live birds, which are then sold to pet stores, private collectors, zoos, and other specialized buyers. These birds may be used for a variety of purposes, such as 010611 pet birds, 010612 racing pigeons, or 010613 other live birds for agricultural purposes. The industry also contributes to the conservation of certain avian species through captive breeding programs.
