What This Code Means
If your business involves growing cereal crops or oilseeds on UK farmland, this is the correct SIC code. It does not cover processing or milling — those fall under manufacturing codes in Section C. Most UK arable farms will use this code as their primary classification. Farms that also keep livestock may need to add code 01500 (mixed farming) as a secondary code.
Businesses That Use This Code
- Arable farms growing wheat, barley or oats
- Farms cultivating rapeseed or linseed
- Mixed crop farms growing legumes
- Large-scale grain producers
