HS v2022 Code: 843710

About machines; for cleaning, sorting or grading seed, grain or dried leguminous vegetables

HS code 843710 covers a critical segment of the agricultural machinery industry, focusing on machines used for cleaning, sorting, and grading seed, grain, and dried leguminous vegetables. These specialized machines play a vital role in post-harvest processing, ensuring the quality and consistency of agricultural products that are essential for both domestic consumption and international trade.

Production process

Machines classified under HS code 843710 typically utilize a combination of mechanical and electronic components to perform their functions. Common techniques include vibrating screens, air separation, and optical sorting, which allow for the efficient separation of impurities, grading by size or quality, and the removal of damaged or undesirable items. Manufacturers often incorporate advanced sensors and control systems to optimize the performance and precision of these machines.

Production inputs

The production of machines under HS code 843710 requires a range of inputs, including metal components for the structural and mechanical parts, electronic components for control systems, and specialized software for programming and automation. Additionally, these machines may rely on various types of power sources, such as electric motors or internal combustion engines, depending on the specific application and scale of the equipment.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by HS code 843710 is the machines themselves, which are then sold to agricultural producers, processors, and traders. These machines are essential for maintaining the quality and consistency of agricultural commodities, such as 100190 Wheat, 100300 Barley, 100700 Grain Sorghum, and 071310 Dried Peas, which are often further processed or traded internationally.
