Fertilisers Regulation-repealed

Fertilisers Regulation, Annex I, A - E.1, E2.4 and G, Annex II

This list contains Annex I fertiliser types according to their specific characteristics, and Annex II associated tolerances. Regulation 2003/2003/EC consolidates all European Union rules that apply to fertilisers, and ensures that the technical requirements it outlines are implemented uniformly. The Regulation only applies to mineral fertilisers consisting of one or more plant nutrients. Regulation 2003/2003/EC has been repealed with effect from 16 July 2022 by Regulation 2019/1009/EU.

Product obtained by mixing, compacting or granulating liming materials listed in sections G.1 to G.4 with fertiliser types listed in sections A, B or D. The following mixtures are prohibited: - ammonium sulphate (Type A.1.4) or urea (Type A.1.9) with oxide limes or hydroxide limes listed in Section G.2; - mixing and then compacting or granulating super phosphates of the types A.2.2(a), (b) or (c) with any of the types described in Section G.1 to G.4
G.5 Mixtures of liming materials with other EC fertiliser types
Mixture of [type designation in section G.1 to G.4] with [type designation in section A, B, D]
5 The words 'LIMING MATERIAL' shall be added after the term 'EC FERTILISER'
6 All the properties mentioned in the tables of Sections G.1 to G.5 refer to the product as supplied unless otherwise specified
7 Granulated liming materials which are produced by aggregating smaller primary particles must break down when stirred in water into particles with fineness distributions as specified in the type descriptions, and as measured using Method 14.9 'Determination of the breakdown of granules'
