How the sectors were chosen
Ten are the large Argentine exports to the EU the site started with: wine, beef, honey, citrus, peanuts, fish and seafood, olive oil, dairy, leather and auto parts. The rest follow one rule: every heading for which the European Union bought more than €40 million from Argentina in the latest year Eurostat publishes falls in some guide. Left out: 2827 (the line that weighs is 2827 39 85, «other» chlorides, and the CN does not say which product it is).
A sector is a list of chapters, headings or subheadings of the Combined Nomenclature, and its guide takes every line under them, with no hand-picked products.
