1104.19 - Of other cereals:

This HTS category, 1104.19, encompasses rolled or flaked grains derived from cereals other than oats. It falls under the broader heading for cereal grains that have undergone specific processing, such as being hulled, rolled, flaked, pearled, sliced, or kibbled. These processed grains retain their germ and are intended for various uses, often as food ingredients or for animal feed. The key differentiator here is the specific type of cereal used for the rolling or flaking process.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 1104.12 (rolled or flaked grains of oats), is straightforward: this node specifically excludes oats. Therefore, if the rolled or flaked grain is produced from any cereal such as wheat, barley, rye, corn, or buckwheat, it would be classified under 1104.19, provided it meets the general criteria for rolled or flaked grains.

Within 1104.19, further subcategories refine the classification based on the specific cereal. The subcategory 1104.19.10.00 is dedicated to rolled or flaked grains specifically of barley, recognizing its distinct market and processing characteristics. The remaining products within this category, not specifically designated for barley, are captured under the residual subcategory 1104.19.90.00, ensuring all other rolled or flaked cereal grains (excluding oats) are appropriately classified.
