Generic term (Level of detail)

A term that fixes a food's general nature but not its specific source. To be used only as a base term in a FoodEx2 code if no more specific term is available. ↩

Raw Primary Commodities (RPC) (Type of Term)

Food taken straight from its source — harvested, milked, slaughtered and so on — with no processing that changes its nature. Think fresh fruit, raw milk, or a cut of raw meat. ↩

Implicit facet descriptors *

Descriptors marked are not part of "Reporting hierarchy" and open in their own default hierarchy.

Facet descriptor

Implicit facet descriptors are characteristics a food already implies, so they are left out of its FoodEx2 code. For example, "smoked salmon" (A02KF) implies the facet descriptor "smoking" (F28.A07JV); because the term itself already conveys it, it is not added to the code. ↩

Narrower terms

These are child terms of the current term, "Root and rhizome spices".

Associated terms

These terms refer to "Root and rhizome spices" through a facet — a relationship that cuts across all hierarchies, not just "Reporting hierarchy".
