U+F97B "糧" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+F97B "糧" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a character from the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, which was encoded specifically to preserve roundtrip compatibility with older East Asian character encoding standards like CNS 11643. This particular ideograph represents a variant form of the character 粮, meaning "grain" or "food provisions," and is functionally identical to its standard CJK Unified Ideograph counterpart U+7CAE. Its inclusion in Unicode exists to support legacy text conversion without loss of information, though modern usage generally relies on the unified character instead.
