About vegetables, leguminous; beans of the species vigna mungo (l.) hepper or vigna radiata (l.) wilczek, shelled, whether or not skinned or split, dried

HS code 071331 covers dried beans of the species Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper or Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek, which are important leguminous vegetables traded globally. These beans are a staple food in many regions, providing a valuable source of protein, fiber, and other essential nutrients. The trade in these dried beans is a significant component of the broader agricultural and food commodities industry, with far-reaching economic and social implications.

Production process

Once the beans have matured, they are harvested, often by hand or with the aid of specialized machinery. The harvested beans are then dried, either naturally in the sun or using artificial drying methods, to reduce their moisture content and prepare them for storage and distribution.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of dried beans under HS code 071331 include the seeds or seedlings of the Vigna mungo or Vigna radiata plants, as well as land, water, and agricultural equipment for cultivation and harvesting. Farmers may also utilize fertilizers, pesticides, and other agricultural inputs to optimize crop yields. Additionally, the drying process may require specialized equipment, such as drying racks, ovens, or solar dryers, depending on the production methods used.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 071331 is dried beans of the Vigna mungo or Vigna radiata species, which can be further processed, packaged, and distributed for various culinary and industrial applications.
