Recital 1
Recital 1
(1) The conditions for making fertilisers available on the internal market have been partially harmonised through Regulation (EC) No 2003/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council15 , which almost exclusively covers fertilisers from mined or chemically produced, minorganiceral materials. There is also a need to make use of recycled or organic materials for fertilising purposes. Harmonised conditions for making fertilisers made from such recycled or organic materials available on the entire internal market should be established in order to provide an important incentive for their further use. The scope of the harmonisation should therefore be extended in order to include recycled and organic materials. __________________ 15 Regulation (EC) No 2003/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 relating to fertilisers (OJ L 304, 21.11.2003, p. 1).

Recital 16
(16) Products with one or more functions, one of which is covered by the scope of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, should remain under the control tailored for such products and provided for by that Regulation. Where such products also have the function of a fertilising product, it would be misleading to provide for their CE marking under this Regulation, since the making available on the market of a plant protection product is contingent on a product authorisation valid in the Member State in question. Therefore, such products should be excluded from the scope of this Regulation. Products containing components registered under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 can have one or more fertilising functions and therefore be covered by the scope of this Regulation.

Recital 17 a (new)
(17a) The traceability of products which are vulnerable to organic pollution from certain potentially problematic sources (or perceived as such) should be ensured back to the source of the organic material. This is necessary in order (a) to secure consumer confidence and (b) to limit damage if local contamination occurs. As a result, businesses which use fertiliser products containing organic material from these sources may be identified. This should be compulsory for products containing material from waste or from by-products which have not undergone any processing that destroys organic pollutants, pathogens and genetic material. The aim is not only to reduce risks to health and the environment but also to reassure public opinion and cater for the concerns of farmers regarding pathogens, organic pollutants and genetic material. In order to protect land owners against pollution for which they themselves are not to blame, Member States are called upon to establish appropriate liability rules.

Annex I – part 2 – PFC 1(C) – paragraph 1
An inorganic mineral fertiliser shall be a fertiliser other than an organic or organo-mineral fertilisercontaining nutrients in a mineral form or processed into a mineral form. Calcium cyanamide, urea and its condensation and association products shall be considered as containing nutrients in a mineral form. Organic carbon (Corg) in the CE marked fertilising product shall not exceed 1% by mass. That excludes, by convention, carbon coming from coatings, agronomic additives and technical agents.
