Heading 1007 : Grain sorghum.
This heading covers only those varieties of sorghum which are known as grain sorghums and whose grains may be used as cereals for human consumption. The heading includes sorghums such as caffrorum (kafir), cernuum (white durra), durra (brown durra) and nervosum (kaoliang). The heading does not include forage sorghums (which are used for making hay or silage) such as halepensis (halepense), grass sorghums (which are used for grazing) such as sudanensis (sudanense) or sweet sorghums (which are used primarily for the manufacture of syrup or molasses) such as saccharatum. When presented as seeds for sowing, these products are classified in heading 12.09. Otherwise, forage sorghums and grass sorghums fall to be classified in heading 12.14 and sweet sorghums in heading 12.12. The heading also excludes broomcorn (Sorghum vulgare var. technicum), which is classified in heading 14.04.Subheading Explanatory Note.
