About vegetable roots and tubers; yams (dioscorea spp.) with high starch or inulin content, fresh, chilled, frozen or dried, whether or not sliced or in the form of pellets
HS code 071430 covers a diverse range of vegetable roots and tubers, primarily focused on yams (Dioscorea spp.) that are high in starch or inulin content. These starchy tubers are an important food source in many parts of the world, particularly in developing countries, and play a significant role in the global agricultural and food processing industries.
Production process
Yams and other tubers classified under HS 071430 are typically grown in tropical and subtropical regions. The production process involves planting the tubers, allowing them to grow and mature, and then harvesting them. Depending on the intended use, the tubers may be left whole, sliced, or processed into pellets. Post-harvest handling often includes cleaning, grading, and storage to preserve the quality and freshness of the products.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of HS 071430 products include fertile agricultural land, suitable climate conditions, and access to water for irrigation. Farmers also require high-quality planting materials, such as yam seed tubers, as well as agricultural equipment and tools for planting, harvesting, and processing. Depending on the scale of production, additional inputs may include fertilizers, pesticides, and labor for various stages of the production process.
Production outputs
The primary outputs of HS 071430 are the fresh, chilled, frozen, or dried yams and other tubers. These products can be consumed directly as a food source or used as inputs for further processing, such as the production of 071140 Vegetable roots and tubers, nesi, fresh or dried, whether or not sliced or in the form of pellets, 071290 Vegetables, nesi, frozen, or 110810 Starches; wheat. The high starch and inulin content of these tubers also make them valuable for the production of various food and industrial products.
