Descriptor | 12 SECONDARY FOOD COMMODITIES OF PLANT ORIGIN (CCPR) |
Scope note | |
Description | | The term "secondary food commodity" means a "primary food commodity" which has undergone simple processing, such as removal of certain portions, drying (except natural drying), husking, and comminution, which do not basically alter the composition or identity of the product. Natural field dried mature crops or parts of crops such as pulses, bulb onions or cereal grains are not considered as secondary food commodities.
Secondary food commodities may be processed further or used as ingredients in the manufacture of food or sold directly to the consumer.
