Sorghum Bran from Japan
Bran separated during the milling of sorghum (milo) grains, rich in fiber and used in ruminant livestock feed. HTS 2302.40.0190 covers this as 'other' cereal residues, excluding major grains like wheat. Often pelleted for easier handling and digestion.

Import Tips
• Include milling extraction records to prove it's a sifting residue, not a formulated feed
• Test for mycotoxins common in sorghum; non-compliant lots face rejection at port
• Avoid packaging as 'mixed grain bran' to prevent scrutiny under 2309 mixed preparations
