HS v2022 Code: 3105

About fertilizers; mineral or chemical, containing 2 or 3 of the elements nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium; other fertilisers; goods of chapter 31 in tablets or packages of gross weight not exceeding 10kg

HS code 3105 covers a wide range of fertilizer products that are essential for modern agriculture and food production. These fertilizers, containing a combination of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, play a crucial role in enhancing soil fertility and promoting plant growth, ultimately contributing to global food security. As a key component of the agricultural industry, the 3105 product category is closely tied to the broader economy, supporting industries such as farming, food processing, and international trade.

Production process

The production of HS code 3105 fertilizers typically involves a combination of chemical synthesis and blending processes. Manufacturers may start with raw materials such as ammonia, phosphoric acid, and potassium salts, which are then combined and processed through various chemical reactions to create the desired nutrient composition. The final products are often granulated, pelletized, or formulated into tablets or packages for ease of handling and application.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 3105 fertilizers include raw materials such as 2814 Ammonia, 2809 Phosphoric acid, and 3104 Potassium salts. Additionally, manufacturers may utilize specialized equipment and machinery for the chemical synthesis, blending, and packaging processes. Energy sources, such as electricity or natural gas, are also essential for the production facilities.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of HS code 3105 are a diverse range of fertilizer products, including compound fertilizers, complex fertilizers, and specialty fertilizers. These fertilizers are then consumed by various industries, such as 0101 Agriculture, 1001 Crop production, and 1101 Food manufacturing, as they are essential for enhancing soil fertility and supporting the growth of crops and other plants.
