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 no. 2304 or 2305

HS v2017 Code: 2306

About 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 no. 2304 or 2305

HS code 2306 covers a range of oil-cakes and other solid residues resulting from the extraction of vegetable fats or oils, excluding those from soybeans (2304 Soybean oil and its fractions) and groundnuts (2305 Groundnut oil and its fractions). These byproducts of the vegetable oil industry play a crucial role in the global agricultural and livestock sectors, providing valuable sources of animal feed and organic fertilizers.

Production process

The production of the materials covered under HS code 2306 typically involves the extraction of vegetable oils from various oilseeds and nuts. After the oil is extracted, the remaining solid residues are processed, often through drying, grinding, and/or pelletizing, to create the oil-cakes and other solid byproducts.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 2306 materials include oilseeds and nuts, such as cottonseed, rapeseed, sunflower seed, and various other vegetable oil-bearing crops. Additionally, the production process requires machinery and equipment for oil extraction, drying, and processing the solid residues into the final products.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of HS code 2306 are oil-cakes and other solid residues that are used as animal feed and organic fertilizers. These byproducts are consumed by various industries, including the 1001 Wheat, 1005 (Maize (corn)), and 1201 Soybeans sectors, which use them as high-protein supplements in animal feed formulations.
