1001.99.00.36 - Other red spring wheat 🖩

This classification, "Other red spring wheat," specifically denotes red spring wheat that does not fall under the defined grade categories. Red spring wheat is characterized by its reddish bran color and is typically planted in the spring for a summer harvest. This category serves as a residual for red spring wheat that meets the general criteria for being classified under HTS code 1001.99.00 but does not qualify for the more specific "Grade 1" or "Grade 2" designations.

In contrast to its sibling categories, "Grade 1" and "Grade 2," this node captures red spring wheat where the specific quality parameters, such as kernel hardness, protein content, or absence of defects, have not been met to be classified under the higher grades. The distinctions between grades are typically based on established grading standards relevant to the grain industry, which determine market value and intended end-use.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under "Other red spring wheat" means that the product has met the fundamental requirements for red spring wheat but does not possess the specific quality attributes to be categorized into a defined grade. Therefore, importers and exporters should ensure that their shipments of red spring wheat that do not align with the Grade 1 or Grade 2 criteria are correctly classified here, adhering to any specific regulatory or quality documentation that supports such a classification.
