DECLARATION
Ministry of Agriculture
of 12 November 1998
on the storage and use of fertilisers
According to Section 16 (c) of Act No. 156 / 1998 Coll., on fertilizers, soil aids, auxiliary plant preparations and substrates and on agrochemical testing of agricultural soils (Fertilisers Act), the Ministry of Agriculture provides:
_
Storage of solid mineral fertilisers
(1) Solid mineral fertilisers are stored in storage (1) as bulk or packaged.
(2) Unloaded mineral fertilisers are stored
(a) in heaps designated as fertilisers up to a maximum of 6 m, at least 1 m apart,
(b) in divisions marked with the name of the fertiliser, where heaps may reach the upper edge of the bulkhead at the most; or
(c) in containers.
(3) Packed mineral fertilisers are only stored in packaging for this purpose. Up to 50 kg shall be stored in bags placed on each other up to a maximum of 1,5 m. Pallets may be stored in a maximum of 2 layers when storing fertiliser bags on pallets. Fertilisers above 50 kg shall be stored individually or in a maximum of 2 layers, unless otherwise indicated by the manufacturer.
(4) For a transitional period prior to use, but not more than 1 month, packaged solid mineral fertilisers may also be stored on loose reinforced areas, provided they are placed on pallets and protected from weather effects.
Storage of single-component ammonium nitrate fertilisers
(1) For the purposes of this Decree, single-component ammonium nitrate fertilisers are fertilisers with a total nitrogen content exceeding 28%.
(2) Fertilisers referred to in paragraph 1 may only be stored:
(a) in warehouses, (1) separately and protected from any innards of organic substances, in particular sawdust, straw, wood, oil or alkaline substances, in particular lime and cement;
(b) packed and up to a maximum of 25 tonnes in one stock;
(c) so as to be protected against direct sunlight,
(d) at least 1 m from the wall and ceiling of the warehouse and at least 0,5 m from the heat and light source; and
(e) provided that the manure and packaging residues are immediately removed outside the storage area in the warehouse.
Storage of liquid mineral fertilisers
(1) Liquid mineral fertilizers are stored in tanks (2) for this purpose built and marked by the name of the stored fertiliser, located in detention tanks with a volume greater than the volume of the largest tank in the bathtub placed.
(2) Suspension mineral fertilisers are stored in tanks equipped with an effective mixing device.
(3) For a transitional period prior to use, but not more than 1 month, packaged liquid mineral fertilisers may be stored on loose solidified surfaces provided they are protected from weather effects and the maximum volume of one pack is 1000 litres.
Storage of organic and organo-mineral fertilisers
(1) Liquid organic and organo-mineral fertilisers are stored in impermeable above and, where appropriate, partially embedded tanks or ground sinks. In the operation of sinks and tanks, the inflow of surface water or precipitation water into the pit or tank shall be avoided unless otherwise specified in the approval decision).
(2) Freely loaded solid organic and organo-mineral fertilisers are stored in structures secured in the same way as those for storage of solid manure (3), excluding the inflow of surface or precipitated water, which include a liquid pool, or in the manner referred to in Article 1 (2) in storage (1).
(3) Packed solid organic and organo-mineral fertilisers are stored in storage (1) in the manner specified in Section 1 (3).
(4) For a transitional period prior to use, but not more than 1 month, packaged solid or liquid organic and organo-mineral fertilisers may be stored on free reinforced surfaces, provided that they are placed on pallets and protected from weather effects.
(5) Solid organic fertiliser prepared for own use as compost from manure may be stored on agricultural land for a maximum period of 24 months prior to its use.
Storage of manure
(1) Solid manure shall be stored in buildings for storage of solid manure excluding the inflow of surface or sealant waters, provided that a liquid pool is part of such structures. The storage capacity for solid manure corresponds to their actual production in 6 months. This does not apply when solid manure is stored on agricultural land before they are used. Solid manure may be stored on agricultural land for a maximum period of 24 months.
(2) Liquid manure shall be stored in impermeable above and, where appropriate, partially recessed tanks, ground sinks or stables. The vessels and tanks (3) and, where appropriate, the stables' sub-areas correspond to a capacity of at least four months of expected manure production or its liquid content and at least three months of expected manure and manure production, depending on the climate and weather conditions of the region. In the case of the operation of sinks and tanks, the inflow of surface or precipitation water into the pit or tank shall be avoided unless otherwise specified in the approval decision.
(3) Where data on manure production is not available, obtained in a demonstrable way, in particular by weighing, measuring volume, calculating manure production by species and category of animal, their weight, performance or feeding method, taking into account the consumption of litter and, where appropriate, waste water production, the average livestock production values referred to in Annex 3, Table A and the required storage capacity shall be determined in accordance with Annex 3, Table B. Where the weight of animals determined by weighing is not available, the data referred to in Annex 3, Table B, shall be used for conversion into livestock units. In the case of grazing or residence of livestock on agricultural land, the need for storage capacity is reduced proportionately.
(4) The storage capacity for manure as set out in paragraphs 1 to 3 may be reduced in the case of the tamper-proof putting into circulation of manure, their use for the production of organic fertilisers or for the production of biogas, or their disposal as waste, in proportion to that quantity, on the basis of a processed timetable. However, even after this reduction, storage capacity may not be less than necessary to store the two-month total manure production.
USE OF FERTILISERS, EXCIPIENTS, EXCIPIENTS AND SUBSTRATES ON AGRICULTURAL SOURCES AND FOREIGN OBJECTIVES, AND EVIDENCE OF THE USE OF FERTINGS, EXCIPIENTS, EXCIPIENTS PRODUCTS, SUBSTRATES AND PREPARED STEPS
Use of fertilisers, soil improvers, plant aids and substrates on agricultural land and forest land
(1) The application of fertilisers, soil improvers, plant aid products and substrates shall not lead to direct intrusion into surface water or into adjacent land.
(2) For manure put into circulation in accordance with Section 3 (2) of the Fertiliser Act, its use is indicated in its designation.
(3) Differentiated fertilisation on the basis of data on the properties of the soil or the state of the crop fulfils the conditions of uniform coverage of the land under Section 9 (2) (a) of the Fertiliser Act. The condition of uniform land coverage is also met in the case of fertilisation under specific legislation5).
(4) After applying liquid manure or liquid organic fertilisers to the surface of arable land, fertilisers shall be incorporated into the soil within 24 hours at the latest, except for line fertilisation by hose applicators. After applying solid manure or solid organic fertilisers to the surface of arable land, fertilisers shall be incorporated into the soil within 48 hours at the latest; This does not apply to by-products or by-products resulting from the cultivation of cultural plants.
(5) For the determination of the fertiliser requirement,
(a) the nutrient needs of the crop for the expected yield and quality of production;
(b) the quantity of available nutrients in the soil and the habitat conditions (in particular climate, soil type and type);
(c) the soil reaction (pH), the ratio of important cation (calcium, magnesium and potassium) and the amount of soil organic matter (humus); and
(d) production conditions affecting nutrient availability (precrop, soil processing, irrigation).
(6) Data on the amount of nutrients in the soil is provided by agri-chemical soil testing under Section 10 of the Fertilisers Act. Chemical analysis is determined by soil reaction (pH), carbonate content, liming need, available nutrient content (P, K, Mg, Ca) and cation exchange capacity.
Fertilisation of forest land
Fertilisers are used according to:
(a) evaluation of the results of chemical analyses of soil and crops;
(b) external signs of nutrition, growth and development and their general condition;
(c) the terms and conditions; and
(d) the results of previous fertiliser use in crops.
Record keeping of fertiliser, soil aid, plant aid, substrates and treated sludge
(1) The data set out in Annex 1 shall be recorded in the register.
(2) Where the results of analyses are not available for the purpose of determining the nutrient intake to the soil in the manure used, the data set out in Annex 2 shall be used. Where secondary or main products resulting from the cultivation of cultural plants are left on the land, i.e. harvested plant residues, in particular straw, grass, grass and straw, they shall be entered in the register without indication of the amount of matter and nutrients. Total data on manure and urine production set out in Annex 3, Table A and data on nutrient input to soil in feces and urine set out in Annex 2 shall be used for the recording of manure and urinals for grazing or on agricultural land. The date of application of the manure is in this case the time ranges of individual grazing or animal stays on the parcel. The end of the use of fertiliser for the purposes of registration shall then be the date on which the animals last leave the land in question. Under the heading, the type of manure shall be indicated in the case of the leaving of feces and urinals of livestock on the agricultural land by the indication "grazing period 'or" stay' identifying the species or category of animals.
Method of reporting the use of treated sludge
The report on the use of treated sludge shall be made using the form set out in Annex 4.
This decree shall take effect on the day of its publication.
