Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If derived from maize starch extraction but not specifically gluten meal
Broader classification for other maize bran, sharps, or residues if protein content is below 60% or not processed as gluten meal.
If pelleted or mixed with vegetable residues for animal feed
Pelleted preparations with mixed ingredients shift to Chapter 23 preparations for animal feed rather than pure starch residues.
If used as fertilizer rather than animal feed
End-use as plant nutrient classifies it under screenings, husks, and other vegetable residues for fertilizer use.
