14. Ammonium nitrate (1,250/5,000): fertiliser grade.E+W+S
This applies to straight ammonium nitrate based fertilisers and to ammonium nitrate based compound/composite fertilisers which fulfil the requirements of Annex III-2 to Regulation (EC) No. 2003/2003 and in which the nitrogen content as a result of ammonium nitrate is—
(a)more than 24.5% by weight, except for mixtures of straight ammonium nitrate based fertilisers with dolomite, limestone and/or calcium carbonate with a purity of at least 90%;
(b)more than 15.75% by weight for mixtures of ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulphate; or
(c)more than 28% M1 by weight for mixtures of straight ammonium nitrate based fertilisers with dolomite, limestone and/or calcium carbonate with a purity of at least 90%.
