HS v2017 Code: 020830

About meat and edible meat offal; of primates, fresh, chilled or frozen

HS code 020830 covers the trade of meat and edible meat offal from primates, which includes various species of monkeys, apes, and other non-human primates. This industry plays a significant role in the global food supply chain, particularly in regions where primate meat is a traditional or cultural food source. While the consumption of primate meat remains controversial in many parts of the world, it continues to be an important economic activity in certain markets.

Production process

The production of primate meat typically involves the hunting or farming of these animals, followed by the slaughtering, butchering, and processing of the meat. Hunting methods can vary, ranging from traditional techniques to more modern approaches, while farming operations often involve the controlled breeding and rearing of primates in dedicated facilities. The meat is then processed, which may include chilling, freezing, or other preservation methods, to ensure its quality and safety for consumption.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the primate meat industry include the live animals themselves, as well as the necessary equipment and infrastructure for their capture, transportation, and slaughter. This may include specialized hunting or trapping gear, vehicles, and processing facilities. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce, including hunters, farmers, butchers, and logistics personnel, to ensure the efficient and responsible production of primate meat.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 020830 is the primate meat itself, which can be sold fresh, chilled, or frozen for consumption. This meat may be used in a variety of culinary applications, from traditional dishes to more modern cuisine. The industry's outputs may also include other edible offal, such as organs or other byproducts, which may be consumed or used for other purposes. The primate meat produced under this code may be consumed domestically or exported to other markets, potentially overlapping with the trade of 020100 Meat of bovine animals, fresh or chilled or 020200 Meat of bovine animals, frozen.
