White Pea Bean Sowing Seeds
Shelled, dried white pea beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), high-germination variety packaged for agricultural sowing. As dried leguminous vegetables, they fall under heading 07.13; the sowing purpose does not change the classification because chapter note 3 excludes only certain dried vegetables from heading 07.12, not 07.13.
