About bran, sharps and other residues; whether or not in the form of pellets derived from the sifting, milling or other working of cereals or of leguminous plants

HS code 2302 covers a range of byproducts and residues derived from the processing of cereals and leguminous plants. These materials, often referred to as bran, sharps, and other residues, play a crucial role in the broader agricultural and food processing industries. They serve as valuable inputs for animal feed, biofuel production, and various industrial applications, contributing to the efficient utilization of agricultural resources.

Production process

The production of the materials covered under HS code 2302 typically involves the sifting, milling, or other working of cereals and leguminous plants. This process separates the edible portions, such as flour or grains, from the less valuable byproducts, including the outer layers, husks, and other residues. These residues are then further processed, often through pelletization or other methods, to create a consistent and standardized product suitable for various end-uses.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the production of HS code 2302 materials are the raw cereals and leguminous plants, such as wheat, corn, rice, soybeans, and other grains and pulses. Additionally, the production process may require specialized machinery and equipment for milling, sifting, and pelletization, as well as energy sources and other ancillary materials.

Production outputs

The main outputs of the HS code 2302 industry are the bran, sharps, and other residues derived from the processing of cereals and leguminous plants. These materials are widely used as animal feed ingredients, particularly in the production of 2309 Preparations of a kind used in animal feeding. They may also be utilized in the manufacture of 2302 Bran, sharps and other residues; whether or not in the form of pellets derived from the sifting, milling or other working of cereals or of leguminous plants for biofuel production or as a source of fiber and nutrients in various industrial applications.
