U.S. exports of mechanical appliances for agricultural & horticultural projecting/spraying (nesoi) (HS 842482) totaled $40.2M in July 2026.
Importers of Mechanical Appliances for Agricultural & Horticultural Projecting/Spraying (NESOI) paid $498K in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 17% on $3.0M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Mechanical Appliances for Agricultural & Horticultural Projecting/Spraying (NESOI) imports of $14.0M in July 2026 ran 13% below the year-to-date monthly average of $16.0M.
Last updated: July 2026 dataCenter-pivot and lateral-move irrigation systems — among the most capital-intensive inputs in large-scale US crop production — are classified here alongside other agricultural dispersing and projecting appliances not covered by more specific headings. The US schedule carves out self-propelled center-pivot irrigation equipment (8424820010), other agricultural or horticultural irrigation equipment (8424820020), and a residual line (8424820090). Mexico is the leading supplier, with China and the Dominican Republic also notable sources. Importers of center-pivot systems should be aware that these large, multi-component machines are often shipped in knocked-down form, and the classification of the complete system versus individual structural components can be a point of CBP scrutiny.

Yes — CBP's incomplete or unassembled goods rule (GRI 2(a)) allows a complete machine shipped in parts or knocked-down form to be classified as the complete article, provided the importer can demonstrate that all essential components for the complete system are included in the shipment. Detailed packing lists and assembly diagrams are critical supporting documents.
8424820010 is specifically reserved for self-propelled center-pivot systems — the large circular-field irrigation machines that move on wheeled towers. All other agricultural or horticultural irrigation equipment, including drip systems, linear-move systems, and stationary sprinkler setups, falls under 8424820020. The self-propelled, center-pivot design is the operative criterion for the more specific line.
