from the production, processing, sampling, and testing of the
fertiliser.
2. The acceptable deviation of the declared content of
different nitrogen forms (NO3, NH4, etc.) and phosphorus (P2O5)
soluble in different solvents shall be 1/10 of their total
content, the maximum deviation shall be 2 % of the mass if the
total content of the relevant plant nutrition element conforms to
the requirements referred to in Annex 1 to Cabinet Regulation No.

Identification, Quality Conformity Assessment, and Sale of
Fertilisers and Substrates, (hereinafter - the Regulation) and
the negative deviation specified in this Annex.
3. The acceptable deviation of the declared content of plant
nutrition elements for the fertilisers referred to in Section H
of Annex 1 to the Regulation shall be 0.4 % by mass if the
content of the element exceeds 2 % in the fertiliser and 1/5 of
the declared content if the content of the element does not
exceed 2 % in the fertiliser.
4. The acceptable negative deviation of the relevant declared
indicator shall be 1/5 of the declared value, unless otherwise
stated in this Annex.
5. The negative and positive deviations shall be applicable to
