0704.10.60.00 - Cut, sliced or otherwise reduced in size

This HTS classification, 0704.10.60.00, encompasses cauliflowers and broccoli that have undergone processing to reduce their size. This includes vegetables that have been cut into florets, sliced into pieces, diced, or otherwise prepared by any method that diminishes their original form. The key criterion for inclusion in this category is the physical alteration of the vegetable through size reduction, irrespective of whether it's for immediate consumption or further processing.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 0704.10.40.00, which specifically covers cauliflowers and broccoli that have *not* been reduced in size. Therefore, whole or halved cauliflowers and broccoli would fall under the "not reduced in size" classification, while those already segmented or chopped would be classified here. The method of reduction is broad, encompassing any action that breaks down the vegetable into smaller units.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within 0704.10.60.00. The classification ends with the description of cut, sliced, or otherwise reduced in size. This means that all forms of processed cauliflowers and broccoli meeting this size reduction criteria, whether fresh or chilled, are consolidated under this specific HTS code.
