1209.29.91.60 - Sudan grass 🖩

This classification encompasses seeds of a kind used for sowing that are specifically for the purpose of cultivating forage crops. It falls under the broader category of "Seeds, fruits and spores of a kind used for sowing" and is further refined within "Seeds of forage plants." This particular subheading covers miscellaneous forage grass seeds that do not fit into more specific categories.

Within this "Other" subheading for forage plant seeds, Sudan grass is specifically classified. It is distinguished from sibling categories that cover other distinct forage grass species such as Bent grass (genus Agrostis), Bermuda grass, Birdsfoot trefoil, and Orchard grass. While all are forage plant seeds intended for sowing, the individual identification of species like Sudan grass is crucial for precise tariff application.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 1209.29.91.60 is directly determined by the seed being Sudan grass and its intended use for sowing as a forage crop. Customs officials will rely on the botanical identification of the seed and confirmation of its suitability for sowing purposes to assign this specific HTS code.
