Ehdotuksen tiedot

This document specifies references to the methods for the determination of the following parameters in organic and organo-mineral fertilizers: — Determination of the total organic carbon content; — Determination of the dry matter content. The method for the determination of the total organic carbon is not applicable to products containing urea-formaldehyde polymers or urea as long as there is no method available to assess carbon in urea-formaldehyde polymers or urea. The carbon contained in these compounds is not considered organic [1]. The scope of the standards referenced in this document specifies in which cases the method is also applicable to fertilizing product blends.
