Barley Chop
Barley chop consists of hulled barley kernels chopped into short, coarse fragments for use as poultry feed. It is coarser than meal or groats, so it does not meet the particle-size definitions of heading 11.03 and is classified as other worked grains of barley.
Crimped Barley
Crimped barley is produced by passing hulled barley grains through rollers to crack the bran without fully flattening them, typically used fresh for horse feed. This processing qualifies as other worked grains of barley, as it is not finely fragmented to meet heading 11.03 definitions.
Flaked Barley Grains
Flaked barley grains are hulled barley that has been steamed and rolled into thin flakes, commonly used in brewing for beer mashing. This process qualifies as other worked grains of barley, as it is not milled to the fineness required for heading 11.03.
Hulled Barley Grains
Hulled barley grains are whole barley kernels with only the inedible outer hull removed, retaining the bran and germ for nutritious whole-grain use in salads or baking. This processing qualifies as other worked grains of barley, as the grains are not further milled or fragmented.
Kibbled Barley
Kibbled barley consists of hulled barley coarsely chopped or cracked into small pieces for animal feed or brewing. It qualifies as other worked grains of barley, as it is not finely fragmented to meet the sieve specifications for groats or meal under heading 11.03.
Pearl Barley
Pearl barley is barley grains that have been hulled and polished to remove the outer bran layer, resulting in smooth, oval grains suitable for soups and stews. This processing qualifies as other worked grains of barley, as pearling is explicitly listed in heading 11.04.
