HS v2017 Code: 1207

About oil seeds and oleaginous fruits, n.e.c. in chapter 12; whether or not broken

HS code 1207 covers a diverse range of oil seeds and oleaginous fruits that are not classified elsewhere in chapter 12 of the Harmonized System. These commodities are of great economic importance, as they serve as crucial raw materials for the production of vegetable oils, animal feeds, and a wide array of other products. The global trade in these oil-bearing crops plays a significant role in the international agricultural and food processing industries.

Production process

The production of oil seeds and oleaginous fruits classified under HS code 1207 typically involves a combination of agricultural practices, such as planting, harvesting, and post-harvest processing. Depending on the specific crop, the production techniques may vary, but generally include land preparation, sowing, pest and disease management, irrigation, and harvesting. After harvesting, the seeds or fruits are often dried, cleaned, and sometimes subjected to further processing, such as oil extraction or dehulling, before being traded or used as inputs for various industries.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of oil seeds and oleaginous fruits under HS code 1207 include arable land, suitable climate conditions, agricultural machinery and equipment, fertilizers, pesticides, and a skilled labor force. Additionally, access to water resources, transportation infrastructure, and storage facilities are important for the efficient cultivation and distribution of these commodities.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industries covered by HS code 1207 are the oil seeds and oleaginous fruits themselves, which are then used as inputs for a variety of downstream industries. These include the production of 1512 Vegetable oils and their fractions, 2304 Oil-cake and other solid residues, whether or not ground or in the form of pellets, resulting from the extraction of soybean oil, and 2306 Oil-cake and other solid residues, whether or not ground or in the form of pellets, resulting from the extraction of vegetable fats or oils, other than those of heading 2304 or 2305.
