U.S. imports of residues of starch manufacture & similar residues (SITC 08151) totaled $2.8M in April 2026, traded with 9 countries.
Importers of Residues of Starch Manufacture & Similar Residues paid $114K in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 11% on $1.0M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataCorn gluten feed and corn gluten meal — the most commercially significant products in this heading — are byproducts of wet-milling operations and serve as cost-effective protein and energy supplements in cattle, dairy, and poultry rations. Wheat starch residues (bran and middlings fractions from starch extraction) and potato pulp from potato-starch processing also fall here, each with distinct fiber and protein profiles that influence feed-formulation decisions. Classification precision matters because some starch-manufacture residues overlap with bran headings, and the specific processing route (wet-milling vs. dry-milling) can determine the correct tariff line.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Corn gluten meal is the higher-protein fraction (typically 60%+ crude protein) separated during wet-milling, while corn gluten feed is the lower-protein blend of bran and steep liquor (typically 18–24% crude protein). The two products may fall under different tariff lines, so the supplier's specification sheet confirming protein content and processing method is essential for correct classification.
A commercial invoice identifying the source grain, the processing method, and the product's proximate analysis (protein, fat, fiber, moisture) is standard. If the residue is destined for animal feed, it must comply with FDA feed-ingredient definitions, and some state feed-control officials require product registration before sale.
