Cereals; triticale

HS v2022 Code: 100860

About cereals; triticale

HS code 100860 covers triticale, a hybrid cereal grain that is a cross between wheat and rye. Triticale combines the high yield potential and grain quality of wheat with the disease and environmental stress tolerance of rye. As a versatile cereal, triticale is grown globally and has a wide range of applications in food, animal feed, and industrial products, making it an important component of the broader agricultural economy.

Production process

Triticale is primarily cultivated through conventional farming methods. The production process typically involves seed selection, soil preparation, sowing, fertilization, pest and disease management, and harvesting. Triticale is typically grown as a winter or spring crop, depending on the climate and regional practices. Harvesting is usually done mechanically, with the grain being dried, cleaned, and stored for further processing or distribution.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for triticale production include high-quality triticale seeds, arable land, agricultural machinery (such as tractors, seeders, and harvesters), fertilizers, and crop protection products (e.g., pesticides and herbicides). Additionally, access to water for irrigation and a suitable climate are important factors in successful triticale cultivation.

Production outputs

Triticale is primarily used as a feed grain for livestock, particularly in the production of 100590 Cereal grains, nes. It is also used in the production of 190120 Malt extract, 190190 Preparations of cereals, flour, starch or milk; pastrycooks' products, and 230990 Preparations of a kind used in animal feeding, nes. Additionally, triticale can be used for human consumption, such as in the production of 190120 Malt extract and 190190 Preparations of cereals, flour, starch or milk; pastrycooks' products.
