Hemp Seeds from Mexico
Hemp seeds (Cannabis sativa) are small, nutrient-rich oil seeds harvested from the hemp plant, primarily used for oil extraction or direct consumption. They fall under HTS 1207.99.03.91 as other oil seeds and oleaginous fruits, not elsewhere specified, due to their high oil content and classification outside major categories like soybeans or sunflower seeds.
