About plants, live; n.e.c. in heading no. 0601, (including their roots) cuttings and slips; mushroom spawn

HS code 0602 covers a diverse range of live plants, including those not classified elsewhere in the 0601 heading. This industry plays a vital role in the global agricultural and horticultural sectors, providing the raw materials for landscaping, gardening, and various other applications. The production and trade of these live plants are essential for meeting the growing demand for greenery, food production, and environmental sustainability worldwide.

Production process

The production of live plants under HS code 0602 involves various techniques, such as propagation through cuttings, slips, and tissue culture. Mushroom spawn, a key component in mushroom cultivation, is also included in this category. Growers carefully manage the growing environment, including factors like soil, temperature, and moisture, to ensure the optimal growth and health of the plants.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the 0602 industry include high-quality seeds, cuttings, and other plant materials, as well as specialized growing media, such as soil, peat, and other substrates. Greenhouses, nurseries, and other controlled environments are often used to provide the ideal conditions for plant growth. Additionally, the industry relies on various tools, equipment, and machinery for planting, transplanting, and maintaining the live plants.

Production outputs

The live plants and mushroom spawn produced under HS code 0602 are primarily used as inputs for other industries, such as 0603 Cut flowers and flower buds, 0604 Foliage, branches and other parts of plants, and the broader 06 Live trees and other plants; bulbs, roots and the like; cut flowers and ornamental foliage industry.
