8432.90.00.60 - Of seeders, planters, transplanters, manure spreaders and fertilizer distributors

This HTS classification covers parts specifically designed for seeders, planters, transplanters, manure spreaders, and fertilizer distributors. These machines are used in agricultural and horticultural settings for the precise application and distribution of seeds, plants, fertilizers, and other soil amendments. Examples of items classified here include components such as seeding mechanisms, fertilizer hoppers, distribution spouts, planter units, and transplanting arms when they are exclusively intended for use with these specific types of agricultural machinery.

This category is distinct from its sibling categories by its focus on machinery for seed and fertilizer application and planting, rather than soil preparation and cultivation. For instance, parts for plows (8432.90.00.40) prepare the soil, while parts for harrows, scarifiers, cultivators, weeders, and hoes (8432.90.00.50) further till and clean the soil. This category, conversely, addresses the machinery that introduces beneficial materials or plants into the prepared soil.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 8432.90.00.60 relies on accurately identifying that the part's sole purpose is for use with seeders, planters, transplanters, manure spreaders, or fertilizer distributors. The specific function and design of the part must directly relate to the operation of these specialized agricultural machines.
