If a trace element is indicated or implied in the mark, the mass fraction of the trace element shall be deemed to be no less than 0.02%.
Trace element fertilizer should be marked with the single content of various trace elements and the sum of trace element nutrient content.
Organic fertilizer should be marked with organic matter content, total nutrient content.
05 Limited Substances and Indicators
