Abstract

The Regulations are amended so as to provide certain exceptions on the obligation to low-emission use of organic manure or other organic fertilizing substances so as to extend the period of use which prevents or limits soil erosion. This Regulation also extends the period in every year in which manure or other organic fertilizers may be distributed. In addition a minor modification of a definition is made.
