Introduction
Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 [3] lays down the rules on the making available on the market of EU
fertilizing products and the specific safety, quality and labelling requirements for the defined product
function categories (PFCs). Liming materials have been classified as PFC 2.
In this document the normative references of the test methods to be used for liming materials (PFC 2) are
defined in order to measure the compliance with the related requirement in Regulation
(EU) 2019/1009 [3].
Supplementary denominations and specifications widely used in Europe are given in EN 14069 [2].
1 Scope
This document is applicable to liming materials, which contain oxides, hydroxides, carbonates or silicates
of the nutrients calcium (Ca) or magnesium (Mg) and the function of which is to correct soil acidity. It is
applicable to fertilizing products, which are classified as PFC 2 or the PFC 2 component in PFC 7 of
Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 [3].
NOTE The methods referred to in this document have not been tested for fertilizing product blends (PFC 7) [3].
This document specifies references to the methods for the determination of the following physical and
chemical properties and specific contaminants in liming materials:
— Determination of the cadmium content;
— Determination of the chromium VI content;
— Determination of the mercury content;
— Determination of the nickel content;
— Determination of the lead content;
— Determination of the arsenic content;
— Determination of the total chromium content;
— Determination of
