Overview

This HTS classification, 1209.91.80.45, specifically covers kale when imported or exported for the purpose of sowing. As a member of the broader category for vegetable seeds, this code distinguishes kale from other seeds used for propagation within the agricultural sector. The inclusion of "kale" signifies a specific cultivar within the broader vegetable seed classification.

Within the sibling categories, this classification is distinct from seeds of other Brassica oleracea varieties such as broccoli (1209.91.80.05) and cabbage (under 1209.91.80). It also differentiates kale seeds from those of root vegetables like carrots (1209.91.80.10) and radishes (1209.91.80.20), as well as leafy greens like spinach (1209.91.80.30). The key differentiator lies in the botanical identification of the seed's intended plant.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 1209.91.80.45. Therefore, all shipments of kale seeds intended for sowing fall under this specific code, without further subdivision based on variety or processing at this level of detail.
