A15 - Fresh vegetables (except potatoes and pulse crops)

This section comprises fresh vegetables, except potatoes and pulse crops. Vegetables are temporary crops cultivated principally for human consumption both as field crops and garden crops, in the open and under protective cover. Certain gramineous and leguminous plants, if harvested while green for their green grains or for their green pods (for example, green peas, string beans, green maize) are treated as fresh vegetables, but if harvested for their dry grains or seeds, are classified as cereals and pulse crops.
