All Fertilizer products, organic or inorganic, raw materials and ingredients for fertilizer, which are imported or produced locally, should be registered with FPA.
Registration requirements include the submission of production specification supported by chemical analysis, mode of action, product type and the result of efficacy trials conducted by an FPA accredited and independent researcher. The set of data is evaluated by a registration consultant.
With the continued production of new grades, brands and type of locally produced and imported fertilizers, to take advantage of the increasing market demand, a wide range of products for selection are provided. Registration of these commercially processed fertilizers is therefore needed to give greater assurance that the quality of each brand is maintained as the specified standards (characteristics and effort) as claimed by the registrants.
Fertilizer handlers such as importers, distributors, exporters, manufacturers, bulk blenders and processors should register their products with FPA.
