      Hello everyone:

      I would like to propose two additions, which are important from my point of view, namely:

      1. Into “Terms and definition”:

      Fertilizer: a substance that is used to provide nutrients to plants, usually via application to the soil, but also to foliage or through water in rice systems, fertigation, hydroponics or aquaculture operations. (I propose to change “provide” on “improve/provide” because as a rule fertilizers do not replace nutrition from soil but improve it).

      2. Into 3.5 “Government should”:

      Add 3.5.7. “Provide control on the quality of inorganic fertilizers regarding possible effect on soil health and properly information about this issue”.

       

      Regards,

      Mykola
