AAFCO cells are paraphrased fact summaries (copyrighted source); EU/CN/KR cells are verbatim from government sources.\n\n- **Latin anchor:** Cichorium intybus L. (primary source plant in AAFCO/EU)\n- **Process anchor:** AAFCO `60.106` \"Inulin\"; EU `4.4.9` \"Chicory inulin\"\n- **Verdict:** `equivalent`\n\n## Per-jurisdiction entry\n\n- **🇺🇸 AAFCO (US) — Ch.6 `60.106` \"Inulin\"**: AAFCO 60.106 defines inulin as a polysaccharide obtained by hot-water extraction from plants such as chicory (Cichorium intybus L.), Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus) and agave (Agave azul tequilana), intended for use as soluble, fermentable fiber.  _(paraphrase) — AAFCO OP 2024 Ch.6, code 60.106; AAFCO OP is copyrighted, cell is a derived fact summary, not verbatim)_\n\n- **🇪🇺 EU — Reg 68/2013 `4.4.9` \"Chicory inulin\"**: Inulin is a fructan extracted from roots of Cichorium intybus L.; raw chicory inulin may contain up to 1 % sulphate and may contain up to 0,5 % sulphite.  _(src: EU Reg 68/2013 Annex, code 4.4.9)_\n\n- **🇨🇳 CN — 公告1773**: no confirmed equivalent entry found in the CN feed-ingredient directory (Ann.1773) for \"Inulin\". CN 公告1773 does not list inulin/菊糖 as a feed ingredient; the chicory entries (4.5.1 菊苣根干, 4.5.2 菊苣渣) cover the root and the post-extraction pulp, not the extracted inulin itself.  _(src: 农业部公告第1773号 饲料原料目录)_\n\n- **🇰🇷 KO**: no confirmed Korean name in the local 별표1/별표2 HWP extracts (the parsed extract set is partial — the animal-origin and mineral sections of 별표1 are not in the local set); live regulation 사료등의기준및규격(전문)_2025-93호 currency unverified in this environment. Honest gap, not fabricated.\n\n## Crosswalk verdict\n\nAAFCO 60.106 and EU 4.4.9 'Chicory inulin' name the same fructan extracted from chicory roots (Cichorium intybus L.); AAFCO additionally allows agave and Jerusalem artichoke sources, and the EU entry permits small sulphate/sulphite residues. Equivalent substance; source-plant scope differs slightly — noted, not asserted as identical.\n\n## Multilingual names (official where free)\n\n- EN (AAFCO/EU): see per-jurisdiction entry above\n- ZH (CN): no confirmed CN entry\n- KO (KR): not confirmed in local 별표1/별표2 extracts (partial set) — honest gap\n- ES / FR / DE (EUR-Lex 68/2013 official 24-language versions): pending — collection via EUR-Lex multilingual fetch\n- JA (MAFF 成分规格) / RU (EAEU TR): pending — collection pending\n- Related: `ingredient_crosswalk_chicory_pulp` `ingredient_crosswalk_dried_chicory_root_pulp` `ingredient_crosswalk_fructooligosaccharide`\n\n> Method: `derived_from_dataset`. Every quoted name/definition is from the first-hand source cited per cell (AAFCO paraphrase mode; EU/CN/KR verbatim). Equivalence is a derived editorial judgement anchored on Latin name + process; where jurisdictions use different regulatory units the verdict is `closest_with_differences` / `no_confirmed_equivalent` rather than 'same'.
