| Long description: |
The Ordinance on Principles of Good Professional Practice in the Use of Fertilisers (Use of Fertilisers Ordinance) of 26.01.1996 was enacted on the basis of the Fertilisers Act (DMG). This is intended to bring about better protection of waters against (diffuse) pollution, especially nitrate, from agricultural sources. The Use of Fertilisers Ordinance also serves to implement the EC Nitrate Directive. According to Section 1a of the Fertilisers Act, fertilisers may only be used in accordance with good professional practice. This means, among other things, that the use of fertilisers in terms of nature, quantity and timing must be geared to the needs of the plants and the soil having regard to the nutrients and organic substances available in the soil and the local and growing conditions.
