Cereal grains otherwise worked (e.g. hulled, rolled, flaked, pearled, sliced or kibbled) except rice of heading no. 1006; germ of cereals whole, rolled, flaked or ground

HS v2022 Code: 1104

About cereal grains otherwise worked (e.g. hulled, rolled, flaked, pearled, sliced or kibbled) except rice of heading no. 1006; germ of cereals whole, rolled, flaked or ground

HS code 1104 covers a wide range of processed cereal grains, excluding rice. These products are essential ingredients in various food and feed applications, playing a crucial role in the global food and agricultural industry. The processing techniques applied to these grains, such as hulling, rolling, flaking, and grinding, enhance their versatility and unlock new culinary and nutritional possibilities.

Production process

The main production techniques for HS code 1104 products involve mechanical processing of cereal grains. This includes hulling to remove the outer husk, rolling to flatten the grains, flaking to create thin, flake-like structures, pearling to polish the grains, and slicing or kibbling to create smaller, more manageable pieces. The germ of the cereal grains may also be processed, including being rolled, flaked, or ground, to extract valuable nutrients and oils.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the production of HS code 1104 products are various types of cereal grains, such as wheat, barley, oats, corn, and others. Specialized machinery, including hullers, rollers, flakers, and grinders, are essential for the mechanical processing of these grains. Additionally, energy sources, such as electricity or fuel, and labor are required to operate the production facilities.

Production outputs

The main outputs of HS code 1104 include a wide range of processed cereal products, such as rolled oats, bulgur wheat, pearl barley, and cornmeal. These products are widely used as ingredients in various food and feed applications, including breakfast cereals, baked goods, snacks, and animal feed. Other industries that may consume the outputs of HS code 1104 include 1902 (Pasta, whether or not cooked or stuffed (with meat or other substances) or otherwise prepared, such as spaghetti, macaroni, noodles, lasagne, gnocchi, ravioli, cannelloni; couscous, whether or not prepared), 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, and 2308 Vegetable materials and vegetable waste, vegetable residues and by-products, whether or not in the form of pellets, of a kind used in animal feeding, not elsewhere specified or included.
