U.S. imports of agricultural, horticultural, forestry & beekeeping machinery (nesoi) (HS 843680) totaled $69.6M in July 2026, traded with 41 countries.
Importers of Agricultural, Horticultural, Forestry & Beekeeping Machinery (NESOI) paid $3.3M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 12% on $28.4M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataA broad residual heading capturing specialized farm and forestry equipment not covered by more specific headings — including germination plants with mechanical or thermal equipment, barn and barnyard machines, crop-preparation machinery, and beekeeping equipment. The US schedule breaks this heading into six distinct 10-digit lines (8436800020 through 8436800090), so correct subclassification depends on the machine's primary function. Canada leads imports under this heading, with Italy and Germany also prominent sources, reflecting both proximity-driven trade and European precision-agriculture manufacturing. Forestry machinery lines may intersect with Section 301 exposure for Chinese-origin equipment classified at 8436800020.

Classification follows the machine's principal function under GRI 3(b) or, if that cannot be determined, GRI 3(c). Importers should document the machine's primary design purpose and consult a licensed customs broker, as the distinction between 8436800040 (barn and barnyard machines) and 8436800060 (machines for preparing crops) affects the applicable tariff line.
Beekeeping machinery itself (8436800070) is a mechanical commodity with no mandatory admissibility review. However, if any shipment includes biological materials such as beeswax or live bees, those components would require separate USDA APHIS review. The machinery alone clears through standard CBP entry procedures.
