Last updated: April 2026 dataRaw agricultural outputs used directly in farming operations — such as unprocessed seeds, planting materials, and other farm-input commodities in their natural state — are tracked under end-use code 10140 on the export side. The farming-use designation separates these flows from industrial agricultural materials (10130) and from processed agricultural products, reflecting their role as inputs to foreign agricultural production rather than as end consumer or industrial goods. USDA APHIS phytosanitary and, where applicable, plant variety protection documentation are central compliance requirements for this category, given the biological nature of the materials.

End-use code 10140 covers raw agricultural materials that serve as direct farming inputs — seeds, planting stock, and similar materials used to produce crops or raise livestock abroad. Code 10130, by contrast, captures raw agricultural materials destined for industrial processing (such as fiber for textiles or cellulose for chemicals). The distinction reflects the downstream use of the exported material, not its physical form.
Key compliance steps include obtaining a USDA APHIS phytosanitary certificate confirming the material is free of regulated pests and diseases, verifying the destination country's seed import registration or variety approval requirements (many countries require pre-registration of seed varieties), and checking whether the material is subject to plant variety protection or intellectual property restrictions that affect export licensing. Some destinations also impose germination and purity testing requirements.
