HS v2017 Code: 080251

About nuts, edible; pistachios, fresh or dried, in shell

HS code 080251 covers the import and export of fresh or dried pistachios in their shells. Pistachios are a popular and nutritious tree nut that are widely consumed around the world. The global pistachio industry plays a significant role in the broader agricultural economy, with major producers and exporters located in regions with suitable climates for pistachio cultivation.

Production process

Pistachios are primarily grown on pistachio trees, which can take several years to reach full production. The nuts are harvested by shaking the trees, causing the nuts to fall to the ground. They are then collected, dried, and processed to remove the shells before being packaged and distributed.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the pistachio industry include pistachio trees, land suitable for cultivation, labor for harvesting and processing, and equipment for drying and packaging the nuts. Irrigation, fertilizers, and pest control measures are also important inputs to ensure a healthy and productive pistachio crop.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 080251 is fresh or dried pistachios in their shells, which are then consumed as a snack or used as an ingredient in various food products. The pistachio industry's outputs may also be further processed and classified under other HS codes, such as 080252 Nuts, edible; pistachios, fresh or dried, shelled or 200819 Nuts and other seeds, otherwise prepared or preserved, n.e.c..
