About oil-cake and other solid residues; whether or not ground or in the form of pellets, resulting from the extraction of vegetable or microbial fats or oils, other than those of heading no. 2304 or 2305

HS code 2306 covers a wide range of oil-cake and other solid residues resulting from the extraction of vegetable or microbial fats and oils. These byproducts are an essential part of the global agricultural and food processing industries, providing valuable nutrients and feedstock for various applications. As a key component of the broader 15 Animal or vegetable fats and oils and their cleavage products; prepared edible fats; animal or vegetable waxes industry, HS 2306 plays a crucial role in the efficient utilization of natural resources and the sustainability of global food production.

Production process

The production of oil-cake and other solid residues under HS 2306 typically involves the extraction of fats and oils from various plant-based or microbial sources. This process often includes mechanical pressing, solvent extraction, or a combination of both methods. The resulting solid residues are then further processed, which may include drying, grinding, or pelletizing, to create the final products covered under this code.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS 2306 products include a variety of oilseeds, such as soybeans, rapeseed, sunflower seeds, and cottonseed, as well as other oil-bearing crops and microbial sources. Additionally, specialized machinery and equipment for oil extraction, drying, and processing are essential inputs for this industry.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of HS 2306 are oil-cakes and other solid residues that are used as animal feed, fertilizers, or further processed for various industrial applications. These byproducts are often consumed by industries covered under 23 Residues and waste from the food industries; prepared animal fodder and 31 Fertilizers, among others, providing valuable nutrients and feedstock for a wide range of downstream industries.
